Research Interests
The current areas of research are computational proteomics and interaction network functional analysis, in both cases with application to molecular medicine. Our approach and interest is to reveal signals and structures contained in biological data sets through computational statistics, data integration, and network models. More specifically, the following topics are investigated:
• Quantitative proteomics data analysis;
• Inference of protein complexes from affinity purification mass spectrometry datasets;
• Protein interaction network analysis (applications to innate immunity and cancer);
• Drug-protein interaction analysis, mechanisms of combined therapy synergies;
• Application of interaction network techniques to the analysis of large and noisy sets of genetic lesions as revealed by next generation sequencing approaches.
PhD in mathematics (numerical fluid mechanics), computer science, industrial and academic career in computational biology.
