Current Research

Are malaria-killing T cells in the liver moving due to attraction to the infection site? I have worked on quantifying this problem in the traditional open space view of the liver.
Can I use graph theory to accurately represent the 3D structure of sinusoids in the liver and better determine if T cells move with attraction? I have developed methods to represent the structure using graphs, test for attraction, and simulate cell movement on a constrained structure. (Soon to be published results.)
Can tuberculosis bacterial count prediction be improved using graph objects for representing gene data and informing predictive model creation?
Can I expand subgraphs (such as gene sets) using computational techniques to suggest new vertices (such as genes) belonging in the same subgraph?
