Who am I?

I am a Computational Biology student in the Joint Carnegie Mellon-U. of Pittsburgh Ph.D. Program in Pittsburgh.

I work at the Murphy Lab in problems relating to interpreting fluorescent microscopy images.

Teaching

In Spring 2009, I am teaching a course called Programming for Scientists which is intended as an intermediate class for working scientists who program with only an introductory course or just having informally picked up a language.

Other Interests

I keep a blog, the Mutual Information, where I discuss things from cooking vegetarian to the relationships between anarco-capitalistic atomic communities and multiculturalism.

When given the opportunity, I will run away for a jog in the park.

I have also worked on some open-source software.
