Welcome! Currently we are most interested in APPROXIMATION ALGORITHM design and analysis.

We work on some problems listed in "A compendium of NP optimization problems" and their variants formulated out of multi-omics research and operations research. We are also interested in some aspects of BIOINFORMATICS research such as theoretical computational biology and applications in cheminformatics and omics.

 

 

 

Graduate study applicants interested in join the group must have matching research interests, and refer to some of our past work during the first round of communication.
