Research Interests

I am based in the informatics team working on dementia and Alzheimer's Disease in the Translational Neuroscience and Dementia Research Group.  As a bioinformatician, I am interested in the application of large scale multi-omics data to better understand disease variants and therapeutics.  My main focus is in using genomic and proteomic data analysis from Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease and healthy population cohorts to develop new biomarkers and understand dementia mechanisms by applying integrative and machine learning methodologies.
