Area of Research: Evolutionary bioinformatics

Different proteins evolve at different rates. Elucidation of the determinants of the rate of protein sequence evolution is one of the great challenges in evolutionary biology. The main theme of our research goal is to identify and understand the different evolutionary forces by analyzing the genomic and functional data of various organisms.
