This summer in am back to Siemens Medical Solutions (in Philadelphia area) working with Dr. Balaji Krishnapuram on breast cancer diagnosis

I am starting my fourth year as a PhD student at Iowa State University, Computer Science Department, working at Center for Computational Intelligence, Learning and Discovery under the supervision of Dr. Vasant Honavar.

My primary research interest is machine learning and natural language processing, with emphasis on probabilistic graphical model with applications in sequence and image structured biomolecular and text domains. I am also interested in learning from semantically heterogeneous distributed data, dimensionality reduction methods, ontologies, regularization and visualization.

Education:  BS in Computer Science Cum Laude(minors in Maths and Spanish) Iowa State University, 2004

As of March 2008, I no longer use the pink cellphone because I switched phone companies. Thank you all for your support through this difficult time.
