I'm a third-year graduate student in Mike Eisen's lab. I'm currently working on molecular evolution model of transcription factor binding site evolution that attempts to use substitution data to infer the factor's required affinity for its binding site. I've also started thinking about the uses of distantly related genomes in binding site discovery.

Given that I'm fairly lazy on the web site front, I'm patterning my web site on Venky's web site. In time, it may mature to become more like Lenny's, and with superhuman effort, a little luck, and a little pluck (and just a pinch of the ol' TLC), it might resemble Dan's.
