Research/Clinical Interest
Title
Computational Infrastructure for Integrative Bioinformatics
Description
My research is focused on the computational infrastructure for integrative bioinformatics. Specifically, it seeks to articulate the computational statistics aspects of data analysis with the data representation and management of its acquisition. This domain of enquiry seeks to understand and advance the emergence of unified computational environments that make optimal use of the scalability of cloud computing and the generality of semantic web representations. The practical application of this research is to enable the personalization of medicine by providing its computational vehicle.
