Personal profile

About

My research involves the development of bioinformatic tools to help pharmacists, health professionals and the public better understand complex genomics data, from data processing and analysis pipelines to dashboards for easy visualization. I am also mining and analyzing large metabolomics databases to better understand drug treatment and response mechanisms.
I am also a frequent collaborator with scientists at Butler University and around the country. My contributions have included the processing, analysis, and visualization of different types of 'omics data. Research projects have included the profiling of 'omics data in leukemia, to understand disease progression and treatment response; analysis of gene splicing and polyadenylation patterns to identify treatment mechanisms in pancreatic cancer; and epidemiological analysis to understand why some breast cancer patients do not receive chemotherapy after it is recommended by their doctor.
