Research
My research interests connect the prediction and design of RNA with the physical and statistical principles that organize molecular structure.
Understanding RNA structure through sequence, topology, evolutionary constraints, and physical principles.
TriRNASP · tpFormer
Designing sequences for desired three-dimensional structures, with function as a longer-term question.
DS3dRNA
Using structural statistics and physical models to study molecular organization and structural scoring.
TriRNASP · DS3dRNA
Exploring models that connect structural, topological, evolutionary, and physical information.
tpFormer · Future directions
Published work on TriRNASP examines RNA structural scoring through three-body statistical information. DS3dRNA provides public software for structure-conditioned sequence design. tpFormer is an active investigation of topology-aware structure modeling.
These projects approach related questions from different directions: evaluating a proposed structure, finding sequences for a target structure, and learning representations for structure prediction.
