I am an assistant professor
at Computer Science and Engineering Department,
University of Connecticut. My research is on Computational
Biology and Bioinformatics. Here is a brief bio
of myself.
Notice: I am looking for motivated
graduate students to work with me on problems in Computational Biology.
I prefer students who have background in algorirthms and also know
programming, and are interested in solving computational problems in
biology. Feel free to contact me if you are interested.
Research Interests
I am broadly interested in solving computational problems in
Computational Biology and Bioinformatics using combinatorial or
probabilistic approaches. Currently, my research is mainly on
computational problems in population genomics. I am also interested in
other problems including phylogenetics and high-throughput sequencing. Courses
