| Research interests | My interests cover bioinformatics, which is an interdisciplinary subject at the interface of biology, chemistry, computing, mathematics and physics. I develop methods to analyse the data from functional genomics experiments, such as transcriptomic and proteomic experiments. In particular, I look for ways in which to incorporate known biological phenomena into a statistical analysis of the experiments, e.g. alternative splicing into microarray analysis and post-translational modifications into proteomic analysis. I collaborate with a number of medics and scientists, both within Essex and elsewhere.
