I do research into the causes of nerve damage in diabetes. I bridge the gap between the hardcore biologists and computer scientists to interpret the huge volume of data that we can collect using modern experimental methods. Most recently, we've been looking at the effect of FDA approved drugs on nerve damage as a shortcut to developing new drugs that are both safer and more effective.

The National Center for Integrative Biomedical Informatics (NCIBI) was founded in October 2005 and is one of seven National Centers for Biomedical Computing (NCBC) in the NIH Roadmap. NCIBI is based at the University of Michigan as a part of the Center for Computational Medicine and Biology (CCMB). The Center develops conceptual models, computational infrastructure, an integrated knowledge repository, and query and analysis tools that enable scientists to effectively access and integrate the wealth of biological data.
