Graduate Student

I am a fifth year graduate student. My research involves developing computational approaches to studying biochemical networks. Applications of interest include:

  • elucidating the dynamic structure of metabolic networks
  • the functional interpretation of the metabolome
  • nonequilibrium thermodynamics in biochemical networks
  • nonlinear MCMC sampling
  • bacterial community models
  • computational metabolic engineering
  • improved incorporation of fluxomic data into constraint-based models
  • implications of duality in FBA
  • understanding objective functions and constraints relevant to modeling mammalian and multi-cellular metabolism

Education
