news

I am co-organizing a bioinformatics workshop focused on bringing together CSU researchers interested in bioinformatics.
A PLoS tutorial on using SVMs for biological sequence analysis is available (joint work with C-S. Ong, S. Sonnenburg, B. Schoelkopf, and G. Raetsch).

research

The main focus of my lab is prediction of various properties of proteins: their function, interaction partners, and remote homologs. My work involves integrating diverse genomic data including protein sequence, structure, expression, and functional annotations using tools of machine learning.

software/web servers

PyML: a machine learning environment in Python.
CREME: a cis-regulation module analysis and visualization tool.
