ABEEL

Approximate, simultaneous comparison of microbial genome architectures via syntenic anchoring of quiver representations. Bioinformatics Salazar, A., Abeel, T. [PubMed] [PMC]... Thomas Abeel is currently an Assistant Professor of bioinformatics at TU Delft and a visiting scientist at Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. Dr. Abeel leads the Computational Microbial Genomics Group at the Delft Bioinformatics Lab. His team develops algorithms and visualizations to answer questions in (micro-)biology. Particularly, they are interested to accurately reconstruct the complex heterogeneous genome and transcriptome architectures found in microbial organisms in the medical and industrial domain. The goal is to link genotypes to observed changes in molecular and extended phenotypes of medical or industrial importance, such as antibiotic resistance, virulence or product yield.
