1. Database and Visualization for Advanced Systems Biology
Abstract : In the information age, there is plenty of information available publicly in the field of biology. Utilization of biological data is still slow and inefficient compared to the amount of data generated. This problem arise due to the specific characteristics of biological data, which are complex, dynamic and variable. READ MORE

3. The Mystery of Inequality : Essays on Culture, Development, and Distributions
Abstract : Essay I (with Daniel Waldenström): We estimate trends in global earnings dispersion across occupational groups by constructing a new database that covers 68 developed and developing countries between 1970 and 2018. Our main finding is that global earnings inequality has fallen, primarily during the 2000s and 2010s, when the global Gini coefficient dropped by 15 points and the earnings share of the world’s poorest half doubled.

4. Mitochondrial Genome Analysis Using Next Generation Sequencing for Forensic Applications
Abstract : Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) analysis plays a specialized role in forensic applications, overcoming certain limitations of autosomal DNA markers. The high copy number and uniparental inheritance pattern of mtDNA are advantageous in cases involving shed hairs and aged skeletal elements, especially decades-old missing persons cases. READ MORE
