Educational Background

Research Interest

• Algorithms

  I study algorithms relating to bioinformatics, such as string matching, suffix trees, range minimum selection, lowest common ancestor, etc. Graph related algorithms are also interested, including graph drawing, coloring problems, planar graphs, to name a few.

• Computational Biology

  I am interested in problems about computational biology, ortholog assignments for example. Discovering / predicting similar genes(orthologs) from different species(genomes) was achieved in MSOAR. Currently we work on the project related to MSOAR funded by NSF IIS.

Teaching

I am / was TA of the following courses.
• CS 008: Intro to Computing (Instructor's web page)
• CS 010: Intro to CS I (Class web page on moodle)
