Biography
As a Bioinformatician, I have experience in many Bioinformatics applications, databases, and software packages aided in a wide range of bioinformatics, genomics, and proteomics research topics, e.g. similarity searching, phylogenetic analysis and constructions, epitope prediction, molecular modeling, secondary structure prediction, primer design, big data analysis (clustering, normalization, …), 3D structure prediction, gene finding (motif finding and prediction), genomic analysis, transcriptome analysis, pathways, and networks analysis and prediction.
My goal is to reveal new insights and principles in life sciences, manage and analyze biological data, especially genomic, transcriptomic metabolomic, and proteomic research data such as sequence analysis, interpretation, and annotation. Study tremendous details of biological processes (such as diseases) using the tools of bioinformatics.
