My research is in the area of computational systems biology, which aims to better understand biological systems through the use of computer models. I have active projects in the following areas of research:
Research in the areas listed above requires a broad interdisciplinary approach and I work with people from most areas of science, either in my own research group or as collaborators.
I have supervised more than 15 PhD students. (See the full list here)
I mentor summer projects for UConn Storrs students under the Health Research Program program. I can also mentor summer projects for undergraduate students of other Connecticut colleges under the Partnership for Innovation and Education program.
