Research activity per year
I am a trained bioinformatician with more than a decade of experience working in computational biology. My core research interests are in the area of computational biology, bioinformatics, NGS data analysis, pipeline development and Visualization. I work in conjunction with experimental biologist and am involved in the analysis of genomic, transcriptomic and epigenomic data obtained from next generation sequencer to identify distinct signatures in the case control studies. I also develop distinct workflows and pipelines to enable easy efficient and reproducible data analysis.
