Research interests

My research primarily involves the development of novel statistical, in particular Bayesian, methodology for scientific problems arising in the fields of computational biology and genetics. Detection of sparse signals from noisy discrete data is a significant challenge in many fields, but especially so in genomic data analysis, due to latent positional or structural constraints in such data. My interests include Bayesian statistical modelling for epigenetics, genome-wide association studies (GWAS), and single cell transcriptomics. I have been involved in projects developing novel statistical approaches for statistical modelling and prediction of chromatin structure, deciphering regulatory networks of genes and transcription factors, and integrating different types of genomic data to make robust, efficient and meaningful biological inference. I also work on general Bayesian modelling and Markov chain Monte Carlo methodology for clustering, classification, and model selection with complex, high-dimensional correlated data, including regression mixture models and hidden Markov models, and various applications in biology, medicine and image analysis.
