      Research assistant

      worked on RNAseq Data, learned bash scripting, Python, R, Pipeline developmentIn summary, the objective of my project is to perform comparative genomic analysis of co-expressed networks across species that elucidates conservation in gene regulation. This research aims to answer the question "how the gene regulatory interactions are conserved with increasing evolutionary distance". To solve the question, I am adopting a multi-view data analysis methodology, in particular integrating gene expression data, regulatory interactions, network topology and ortholog identities.Title : "Detecting gene regulatory networks conserved across species from RNAsequencing data"​ Show less
