My research interests are diverse, but more-or-less encompass the
general application of statistical methods and data science to
experimental data with biological applications. Often, this is within
the context of genomics data types, but we are interested in
methodological challenges and robust solutions in data, generally. We
also try to be modern scientists, with a focus on reproducibility (repos
for code) and open science (preprints).

I am mainly interested in gene expression modulation, as it lays the
ground for any cell fate. The questions which excite my curiosity the
most are: How are gene expression programs coded? and maintained? how do
they adapt during development? and disease? To mine the regulation
metastructure genome-wide I’m fond of integrating gene expression and
epigenomic data, and to develop methods for doing so.

My research focuses on understanding genome biology across species from
functional and evolutionary perspectives. I integrate genetics and
multi-omics approaches to investigate regulatory mechanisms within the
non-coding genome, with particular emphasis on long non-coding RNAs.
Through this work, I aim to advance the functional interpretation of
regulatory variation associated with complex traits while developing
computational resources for the broader scientific community.
