My research interests lie in the development and use of bioinformatics, data science, and machine learning techniques to gain insights into biological systems to improve clinical decision and outcome. I’m interested in integrating omics, single-cell omics, clinical and other high-dimensional biological data to better understand the cause of immune dysfunction by utilizing data science techniques to uncover mechanisms and identify therapeutics and biomarkers for precision medicine. My group works with diverse types of high-dimensional biomolecular, clinical, environmental, and survey data from a couple unique cohort populations to define environmental influences and mechanisms on innate and adaptive early life immune maturation and its relationship to inflammatory diseases.
