I am a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Ray and Stephanie Lane Computational Biology Department at Carnegie Mellon University. I currently work on developing computational and machine learning methods, as well as software, for analyzing and understanding single-cell epigenomics.

I obtained my Ph.D. degree in the Department of Computational Mathematics, Science & Engineering (CMSE) at Michigan State University. My training focused on network biology, graph representation learning, spectral graph theory, and machine learning.

• Stay tuned! Something exciting is going online soon!

• obnb: a Python toolkit for setting up benchmarking datasets using publicly available biomedical networks and gene annotation resources. A comprehensive benchmarking study with various graph neural networks and graph embedding methods is presented in obnbench.
• DANCE: an extensive toolkit for deep learning with single-cell (multi-)omics data.
• PecanPy [paper]: a memory efficient and Numba accelerated Python implementation of node2vec with an improved version node2vec+ [paper] for weighted graphs.
• PyGenePlexus [paper]: a network-based gene classification service using machine learning and gene interaction network features.
• GTaxoGym [paper]: a taxonomic study of benchmarking graph datasets from various domains based on the GNN model sensitivity to a collection of graph perturbations.
