My research is at the interface between computer science, mathematics, and biology. I focus on developing and applying computational and mathematical methods to biological questions. Specific areas of interest are:
Cancer genomics, including algorithmic approaches to analyzing genomic alterations in cancer and reconstructing tumor genomes.
Comparative genomics, particularly analysis of genome rearrangements in evolution.
Biological sequence analysis, including problems in multiple sequence alignment, DNA motif finding, and human genetics
