Viral genomics & bioinformatics programme

I am a computational biologist, working to understand behaviour and evolution of viruses by means of computational analysis. My passion is to develop new algorithms and theoretical models that help comprehend complex biological processes.

My experience spans large-scale biological data exploration, the theory and development of new algorithms, coding tailor-made programs and building web driven applications and databases.

My broad research interests include:

  • Next generation sequence analysis
  • Protein-ligand interactions and docking studies
  • Analysis of viral epitope mutations
  • Intra, inter and extra host evolution of viruses
  • MicroRNA analysis

My main focus of current research is the genome sequence analysis of Hepatitis C virus (HCV). I am currently working on high throughput HCV genome sequence data to understand its intra and extra host genome dynamics. As part of this work, I am currently developing novel tools that will greatly improve next generation sequence mapping as well as locating mutations that play a key role in host immune response and anti-viral drug resistance. Additionally, I am also interested in understanding the relationship between human leukocyte antigen (HLA) types and the spontaneous clearance of viral diseases.

Colloborators

My current collaborators are Dr. Emma Thomson, Prof. John McLauchlan, Dr. Pablo Murcia and Dr. Carol Leitch from the Centre for Virus Research (CVR) and I always welcome new collaborations.

Additionally, I also collaborate with STOP-HCV, a nationwide multi-institutional led consortium initiated by Medical Research Council, UK to develop stratified medicine approaches to treat HCV patients.
