Research Interests

My research involves the development and application of computational methods to understand the relationships between sequences, structures and functions of proteins. In particular, I am interested in topics related to (i) the use of machine learning methods in the study of protein sequences and structures, (ii) the origin of the oldest protein families, and (iii) the function and structure of fibrious proteins (in particular coiled-coil domains).
