Computational Biology Lab


The current research projects in the "Roy Lab" include regulatory genomic studies of vector mosquitoes; evolutionary and comparative genomic studies of molecular pathways in insect vectors; the role of miRNAs in various organisms; and investigation of oxidative stress-induced cellular survival pathways in colorectal cancer health disparities – all of which involve analysis and validation of high throughput and next-generation sequencing data using bioinformatics tools and molecular techniques.
