Hi I am an Assistant Professor at the newly created College of Connected Computing and a faculty member of Center for Computational Systems Biology at the Vanderbilt University. I obtained my Ph.D. in Computer Science at University of Maryland, College Park where I worked with Prof. Robert Patro. Prior to joining Vanderbilt University, I was a Ludwig Princeton Scholar at the Princeton University with Prof. Ben Raphael, and Prof. Yibin Kang. I am passionate about answering biological question by employing techniques from statistics and machine learning. This line of research involves developing novel methods
