Research Areas: Formal (especially ontology–based) representation of biological data and its applications. The integration and enrichment of existing biological ontologies by mining the component ontologies, generating assertions involving the ontological terms, and adding these assertions to the ontologies as links between terms. Also, the annotation of texts to serve as gold–standard corpora for biomedical text–mining, involving maintenance of the ontologies used, development of the annotation guidelines, and training of the annotators.

Research Areas:  My main interest is in protein-protein interaction networks.  I design and use the graph algorithms and integrate information from different sources of annotation to analyze genomic data and predict protein function.  I am also interested in developing algortihms to analyze comparative genomic and functional genomic data.

Research Areas: My research is at the complex interface of Biology and Computer Science, where I work to not only develop new methodologies to aid the interpretation of challenging data sets, but also to contribute to the body of biological knowledge through the development of novel hypotheses. Currently, my research is oriented around craniofacial development and the interpretation of microarray experiments.
