STATEMENT OF INTEREST I have chosen to focus on bioinformatics because it is clear that analysis of large datasets is increasingly important to the biological sciences. I find this quickly evolving field rich with opportunities to learn new skills and to further develop those skills by training and collaborating with other scientists. Working with data from existing and emerging technologies in an open and collaborative environment is preferred. I am interested in both optimizing heuristics for informative but speedy initial data analysis and more open ended exploration of new kinds of data to identify unanticipated sources of information. I have worked primarily on de novo assembly and draf
