Research

I am the Scientific Programmer for the NCSB-NISB Biomodeling and Biosystems Analysis - Life Sciences Group at CWI. My responsibility is to help establish good software engineering practices within the group including, e.g., source code control, release management and documentation. Projects include: VirtualLeaf - an Open Source framework for cell-based modeling of plant tissue growth and development, Hierarchical Boolean Networks - examining the characteristics of attractors in various hierarchically arranged Boolean networks and most recently in developing an on-line repository for Simulation Experiment Descriptions (SED-ML).
