Biography

I'm an Associate Professor of Computer Science in the School of Computer Science, part of the Faculty of Technology. My duties include teaching programming, statistics, computer science, data mining and research methods to undergraduate and postgraduate students. My research interests include the data analysis of medical and biostatistical information and constructing statistical models for prediction and interpretation. My other interests include drug repositioning using chemical similarity, drug side-effects, protein on and off targets - again using computational methods such as complex network theory, clustering and inferential statistics.
