My Research
In my work to date in Computational Systems Biology I have developed and applied discrete math and graph theoretical methods to several topics in life science research and has demonstrated their outstanding applications in numerous papers in first class journals and refereed conference proceedings; some of which opened new (and now active) areas of research, primarily in the areas of the modeling and analysis of biological networks and pathways, and also: comparative genomics, metagenomics, and pharmacogenomics..See more details under Publications, below;I have also co-invented two classes of graphs (both related to interval graphs): trapezoid graphs, and dotted interval graphs; both have respective Wikipedia entries
