Duplication is a prominent mechanism of recent gene birth in Caenorhabditis elegans
… a highly proliferative transposon harbouring a transcription factor binding site (TFBS) and use it to address the question of transposon co-option in this model organism. Finally, using this dataset, I show that tandem gene duplication is a prominent gene birth mechanism, whereas horizontal gene …

Computational Prediction of Functional Elements through Comparative Genomics
… elements, such as protein coding genes, transcriptional regulatory sequences, and non-coding RNA genes. This dissertation research has been focused on two grand challenges of genomics: (i) to decode cis-regulatory modules (CRMs), non-coding DNA sequences controlling gene expression; and …

Extraction and identification of frequent sequential patterns in transcription factor binding site organization of enhancers
… has created vast arrays of data correlating binding sites and regulatory elements with genome regions. There has been great interest in developing new computational approaches that leverage these annotations in order to better understand the layout and organization of eukaryotic genomes and …
