“If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants.” – Isaac Newton

My main research thesis is that computer science methods will profoundly accelerate and enable progress in and understanding of human biology and medicine overall. In particular, I am interested in:

  • Bioinformatics Bioinformatics
  • Artificial Intelligence for Biomedical Problems
  • Data Visualization
