Research Interests
Our research interests are the assessment, improvement, and development of computational approaches, software applications and databases that will facilitate the management, integration and analysis of diverse sources of biomedical data.
In order to benefit human health, advances in the genomics area must be translated into improvements in clinical care. A better understanding of the underlying biological and environmental factors that influence disease ("bench") will lead to the development of practical applications to directly benefit the outcome of patient care ("bedside"). A key component of translational research is the management, integration and analysis of large quantities of data from both the biosciences and clinical domains.
