• Developed software packages and pipelines for genomic data analysis, assembly, polymorphism detection, and array genotyping. Assembled multiple genomes that are biologically, agriculturally significant, or at risk of extinction, including human, conifers, sequoia, redwood, walnut, oak, wheat, and the Zika virus.• Developed MitoHPC, a software package for fast detection of polymorphism in human mitochondria. The software is being used by multiple research centers on various computer clouds and has analyzed hundreds of thousands of human genomes. Performing genome-wide association studies that identified lifestyle and mitochondrial mutations associated with increased cardiovascular and cancer risks.* Developed a web application for quick access to the CHESS3 human gene and transcript database. • Analyzed human ocular and cancer metagenome data. Downloaded thousands of samples, performed sequence alignment, and classification. Used machine learning to develop risk and disease models.• Linux server administration: installed and maintained public software on the group's servers, managed user accounts and services (web hosting, databases, Docker, and virtual machines)* Provided technical support, and mentored students.• Shared data with NCBI and other collaborators; published results (h-index:46).

• Assembled and analysed several biologically significant genomes including bioterrorism agents,Wolbachia, Pseudomonas, Brugia, cow, turkey, and several bees.• Developed software tools and pipelines for genomic data analysis.• Installed and tested new bioinformatics software from the public domain.

• Assembled and analyzed multiple genomes associated with health risks, including Entamoeba , tick, mosquitoe and castor bean.• Developed software tools and pipelines for processing genomic data.• Wrote Standard Operating Procedures and related documentation.

• Installed and evaluated new public domain Bioinformatics software.• Assembled two parasite genomes.• Administered several Solaris and Linux servers and a Beowulf cluster, backed up data, provided technical support to students, faculty and staff.• Participated in the development and teaching of several graduate level classes.
