Research
My main themes of research are:
Computational Biology, for an introduction to the subject,
you can peruse the links and summaries from the course I teach in the Fall:
computational statistics in genetics.
Computer intensive methods in
multivariate statistics, especially the bootstrap.
I wrote my thesis on the bootstrap for multivariate analyses.
I have a course on the bootstrap, if you are interested
here is the web version of the course notes.
Phylogenetic analysis of DNA sequences.
I have several projects linked to this theme in
project, much introductory material can be found at the web site of
the
course I taught
at Cornell,
here is the material associated
Computer Intensive methods in Biology.
Multivariate Statistics applied to microarray techniques.
I collaborate with several PI's in the medical school on finding
differential expression patterns in genes that are
important in various diseases. For my analyses, I use the
tools made available by the Bioconductor
group.
I came to the US for the first time in
1989 to teach a course on Computational Statistics,
a course I have since taught several times and the notes for which
you can find here: Computational Statistics.
