Methods to detect hidden diversity
Develop, test, and refine new computational tools and technologies to uncover hidden aspects of biodiversity.
I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Earlham Institute working within Chris Quince’s group.
My main interest is devising ad hoc bioinformatic pipeline and tools related to exploration of meta-omics datasets. I have been working on various subjects such as AMR, fiber degradation and syntrophy in anaerobic digesters. My most recent projects are linked to coverage estimation from unique k-mer and eukaryotic MAGs identification.
My secondary interest is related to mathematical modelling, in particular Non Negative Factorisation and Bayesian approaches.
