I'm currently a PhD candidate at the University of Edinburgh in the School of Informatics, under the supervision of Dr Stuart Aitken and Dr Bruce Ward. I'm a member of the Centre for Intelligent Systems and their Applications, Edinburgh Bioinformatics and the International Society for Computational Biology. My research interests include machine learning, probabilistic modelling, model optimisation, pattern matching and discovery, bioinformatics & intelligent systems. My working thesis title is "New Approaches for Regulatory Motif Discovery in Alphaproteobacteria".
