Research Interests

Computer Aided Molecular Design

Development of optimization models to systematically identify chemical products in the presence of the chemical process system.

Process Design

Analysis of chemical processing systems in which there are uncertainties in process and model parameters. This is referred to as Flexibility Analysis.

Systems Engineering Approaches to Computational Biology

Development of algorithms for multifunction gene annotation, genetic pathway analysis and clustering. This work is in collaboration with researchers from the University of Connecticut Health Center.
