Guoqing Lu, Ph.D.
- Department of Biology and School of Interdisciplinary Informatics
- Isaacson Professor
- Genomics and Bioinformatics
Additional Information
Teaching Fields
- Courses taught: BIOI 3000 Applied Bioinformatics, BIOL 4030 Introduction to Bioinformatics, and BIOI 4860/8866 Bioinformatics Algorithms
- Courses teaching: BIOL4160-8166 Bioinformatics for Biologists, BIOL4560 Bioinformatics Internship, BIOL4760-8766 Genome Technology and Analysis, and BIOL4860-8866 Comparative Genomics
Research Interests
Bioinformatics and Genomics research topics are abundant, ranging from small-scale sequence analysis to system-level molecular interaction modeling. Our research spans theoretical and applied bioinformatics, primarily focusing on the development of computational methods and systems for genomic data analysis and mining.
In addition, we apply bioinformatics tools to study biological and biomedical problems such as viral evolution, protein classification, and pathogen-host-drug molecular interactions.
