About
I am a postdoctoral research associate at Department of Statistics, Harvard University, in Edo Airoldi's applied statistics lab.
I enjoy solving problems that require statistics, math and programming. If networks are involved or the data is big, that is even better. I have been working on genomic and proteomic data sets and social networks.
I participate in the XDATA Darpa project, and have implemented several network analysis methods in the open source software library igraph.

Software
-
I am the creator and together with Tamás Nepusz the lead developer of the igraph software library.
-
I worked on an efficient implementation of the alternative splicing quantitation method MISO.
-
I am building tools around the CRAN R package repository: a searchable code mirror, a package database, a package search service, a continuous integration service, etc. You can find more of them here.
-
I have created several smaller R packages, for parsing dates, coloring output, etc. Many of them are on CRAN, others on Github.
