We are a Computational Biology and Bioinformatics laboratory in the School of Biology at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Our group does research and development on:

Transposable Elements, Epigenomics & Gene Regulation - the influence of transposable elements (TEs) on the structure, function and evolution of eukaryotic genomes.  Understanding the relationship between TEs, chromatin structure and gene expression dynamics.

Next Generation Sequence Analysis - the development and application of algorithms for the functional genomic analysis of high-throughput sequence data: genome assembly, ChIP-seq, RNA-seq.

Computational Genomics & Public Health - the development and application of computational tools for the analysis of microbial genome sequences.  Creation of web-enabled programs for molecular epidemiology and comparative genomics.
