I am a Lecturer in Bioinformatics at the School of Biomedicine, Univiersty of Manchester, and Bioinformatics Research Lead for the Centre for Advanced Discovery and Experimental Therapeutics (CADET), a joint venture between The University of Manchester and the NIHR Manchester Biomedical Research Centre.
My research centres around signal/image analysis and statistical modelling applied primarily to post-genomic data. In particular, the goal is to provide a fully automated discovery engine for alignment, quantification and modelling of cross-omics data (transcriptomics/proteomics/metabolomics), whether by mass spectrometry, liquid chromatography, 2-D gel electrophoresis or any emerging technique. The Bayesian modelling is powerful but kept quite general and flexible towards the ultimate aim of linking cross-scale regulation and pathways across omics datasets. To this end, accelerated computing techniques such as GPU and Grid infrastructure are key.
