*Application and flair for network biology techniques in extracting biological knowledge whilst working with bench scientists.



I love meeting people and get to learn from them. When not thinking of how research influence me, I blog on the current episodic news of science in general and edit wiki entries of the latest developments.

Specialties: Functional Genomics and Top-down Systems Biology : Annotation and curation of the known unknown regions in the genome, Next Generation Sequencing, Protein/long non-coding RNA interaction networks and visualization, Development of webservers.
