We are an interdisciplinary research group, using computational and molecular techniques
to carry out basic and applied research related to biology. 

A major activity has been working as part of the open source community on projects such as
the InterMine data integration platform.


Current interests include:
 - antimicrobial resistance
 - synthetic biology
 - large-scale data integration [InterMine, HumanMine, FlyMine]
 - machine learning related to the above [Polyglotter_21, SQLformer, SFAVEL_23]
