My work fo­cuses on the com­bin­a­tion of se­mantics, bioin­form­at­ics, and data ana­lysis in aid of mean­ing­fully mo­bil­ising eco­lo­gical data and de­tect­ing struc­ture in this com­plex and plastic con­text.

I ap­ply om­ics-fo­cused bioin­form­at­ics and mul­tivari­ate stat­ist­ics (see mb3is.megx.net/​gust­ame) to the di­verse data sets de­rived from mi­cro­bial eco­logy in­vest­ig­a­tions. I also de­velop re­sources to as­sist mi­cro­bial eco­lo­gists in learn­ing and ef­fect­ively us­ing these tech­niques.

Con­cur­rently, I re­search en­vir­on­mental se­mantics and lead the En­vir­on­ment On­to­logy (ENVO; www.en­vir­on­menton­to­logy.org) in sup­port of se­mantic­ally con­sist­ent data stand­ard­isa­tion across and bey­ond the life sci­ences. I am also co-lead­ing the Sus­tain­able De­vel­op­ment Goals In­ter­face On­to­logy (SD­GIO; git­hub.com/​SDG-In­ter­face­On­to­logy/​sd­gio) to bet­ter link sci­entific out­put to so­ci­etal goals.

My past train­ing in bio­chem­istry, cell bio­logy, and mar­ine mi­cro­bi­o­logy grounds my cur­rent in silico work in bio­lo­gical know­ledge.
