===== Academic Background =====

PhD at the Sanger Institute (2004), supervised by Alex Bateman (Pfam).

Thesis: Biological Investigations Through Sequence Analysis.

Currently a PostDoc at UCL.

===== Current Research Interests =====

All things domain, and plenty of evolution; function prediction for when I'm feeling pragmatic. I prefer to tie function to specific physical features, and am interested in understanding how we can predict emergent functions from the combinations of active elements within a protein. My feeling is that function prediction through statistical identification of correlated terms or similarity matches and path reconstruction will never be truly predictive, but can only infer functional associations based on prior observation. As a result they will always generate substantial numbers of errors.
