− | ==What am I doing? ==
| |
− | I am a PhD student at [http://www.imbv.uio.no/ IMBV] ([http://www.uio.no/ University of Oslo]) and I belong to Donaldson's group ([http://www.biotek.uio.no/ Biotechnology Centre of Oslo]) since October, 2006. Currently, I am working in two different areas: Agent-based modeling of cellular pathways and Protein Interaction Network Analysis. I am also part of the courses [http://www.uio.no/studier/emner/matnat/molbio/MBV3070/index-eng.xml MBV-3070], [http://www.uio.no/studier/emner/matnat/molbio/MBV3020/index-eng.xml MBV-3020], [http://www.uio.no/studier/emner/matnat/molbio/MBV4010/index-eng.xml MBV-4010] and [http://www.uio.no/studier/emner/matnat/molbio/MBV-INF4410/ MBV-INF 4410], as a teaching assistant.

− | ===Agent-based modeling of cellular pathways===
| |
− |
| |
− | I have been working in a method to represent both molecules and the context in which cellular reactions occur, using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_agent autonomous agents], and creating a software for visualization and spatio-temporal [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_simulation simulation] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_signaling signaling pathways] based on such a concept.

− | ===Protein Interaction Network Analysis===
| |
− |
| |
− | Currently, I am doing statistical analysis of the human [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein-protein_interaction protein interaction] network generated from the iRefIndex [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_database interaction database]. I have compared both CORUM and iRefIndex protein complex databases to groups of proteins that are assumed to be involved in the same disease (DiG), in order to computationally determine all known diseases that might be related to known [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_complex protein complexes] in humans.
