About me

Research

I am an assistant professor at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
Most of my time is spent looking at the genomic diversity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis using next generation sequencing as part of the pathogenseq group.
My research entails the design and implementation of data analysis pipelines to process and collate terabytes of data from various structured and unstructured sources to provide biological insights such as population structure, transmission and drug resistance

Code

I code in Python R Perl Javascript and html (also learning Rust). Here is a summary of my github commits:
Loading the data just for you.
