My current work is at the intersection of Computer Science, Biology
and Engineering. The topics I have been interested in recently have
dealt with the validation of sequence data , the simulation of
biological processes (most notably "pathway" and related problems) and
the application of inference schemes based on a mix of Temporal Logic
and Numerical Analysis to the model reconstruction problem for
biological systems. I have been working on the construction of tools
based on a variety of advanced theoretical foundations. All these
tools have always been driven by concrete examples and problems from
Biology and Genomics, Robotics, Automotive and Highway Systems, and
Embedded Systems. The foundations upon which I laid my work are
Mathematical Statistics, Temporal Logic, Control of Discrete Systems
and Formal Specification of Reactive and Hybrid Systems. My current
interests in System Biology require an interaction with researchers in
fields where I cannot claim a deep knowledge, therefore I devote
particular attention to understanding the specific problems at hand,
while trying to contribute statistical and algorithmic solutions based
on a continuous dialogue.
I am currently involved with several projects at the NYU
bioinformatics group.
- GOALIE (Group Leader): a system capable of
reconstructing temporal phenomenological descriptions of the
behavior of a biological system from meausured experimental
(microarray) data. The system can reconstruct a description of the
system behavior using a controlled vocabulary or an ontology (in
particular, the Gene Ontology.)
- Simpathica (Group Leader): an integrated system
whose aim is to empower a biologist looking for systemic properties
of an organism or a pathway, with a set of tools ranging from
simulation algorithms, temporal logic analysis and multiresolution
time-frequency analysis.
Simpathica is part of the
BioSpice
DARPA project.
See the
Simpathica
project section of our site for more information.
- NYUMAD (Group Leader): our integrated microarray
clustering, analysis, and database tool, currently supported by an
NSF grant.
See the
NYUMAD
project section of our site for more information.
