RavenCAD: a DNA assebly planning tool
Published:
RavenCAD is a dynamic programing algorithm for planing DNA synthesis protocols that is accessible as a web application
TBA: a Transcription Factor Binding Analysis
Published:
TBA is a multi-functional machine learning tool for identifying words in the genome (aka transcription factor motifs) associated with genomic features.
Genomic Grammar
Published:
A series of neural networks and algorithms for identifying a genomic grammar that can be used to classify regulatory circuits in the mammalian genome. The current model, is a convolutional network that uses a dot-product attention mechanism. This network has performance on par with or exceeding current state-of-the-art methods such as DeepBind at distinguishing regulatory circuits from random genomic background. Additionally, the attention mechanism of the model can be used to extract the architectures of regulatory circuits in the genome via a post-processing step performed on the output of the model.

SREBP1 Contributes to Resolution of Pro- inflammatory TLR4 Signaling by Reprogramming Fatty Acid Metabolism
Published in Cell Metabolism, 2017
In this paper, the authors identify a biphasic macrophage gene expression program underlying anti-inflammatory fatty acid production following TLR4 activation. The late anti-inflammatory program is dependent on SREBP1. This is surprising given the known roles of SREBP1 in promoting IL1B production during the induction of inflammation and highlights its dual roles.

Analysis of Genetically Diverse Macrophages Reveals Local and Domain-wide Mechanisms that Control Transcription Factor Binding and Function
Published in Cell, 2018
Analyses of genetic variation in macrophages from inbred mouse strains reveal how a complex network of transcription factors influence cis- regulatory elements to impact differentiation and responses to environmental change.

Interactive assembly algorithms for molecular cloning
Published in BioRxiv, 2018
This paper describes the application of a logistic regression model that uses a feature set, which is programmatically curated to reduce multiple collinearity, to identify combinations of sequence features targeted by transcription factors within the AP-1 transcription factor family.

Conference Proceeding talk 3 on Relevant Topic in Your Field
Published in University 1, Department, 2014
This is a conference proceedings talk, for when you give a talk at a conference that archives talks as publications. When the talk_type variable is set to “Conference proceedings talk”, this talk will appear in the Talks page in /talks/, but it will not appear in the Talks section in the /cv/ page. The reason for this is that the conference proceedings talk should have a seprate publications .md file in the /_publications/ folder, which will go in the publications section. You can change this behavior by modifying the /_pages/cv.md file.
