Here you will find some of my recent projects:

• ChimeraUGEM is an algorithm and a software tool that I developed for predicting gene expression as well as optimizing the coding sequence of a target gene to any host organism (see also our paper).

• SCOM is a method for inter-species clustering and comparison of 3D gene organization.
• I created a collection of functions and models for gene sequence analysis, focusing on codon usage. These include, among others, the CUFS model that we developed to measure the distance between pairs of genes in terms of their codon usage.
• PARASCHUT is a set of parallel job scheduling utils, for easier management of large projects on computer clusters.

These are a few of my favorite things:

• The Technicalities is my Indie-Yiddish duo with Shira Z. Carmel, my wife.
• I practice SHODO (Japanese calligraphy).
• I like running.
• My favorite childhood (and adulthood) toy.
• I opened a blog for the Tuller Lab students, where we share our tips and advice.
