In summer of 2003, an HMC student Timothy Carnes majoring in Computer Science was supported by the QLS fund to do research with me in the general area of bioinformatics in collaboration with the Machine Learning System (MLS) group of Jet Propulsion Laboratory. He worked in two subprojects: (a) He helped me with accessing some microarray DNA expression data publically available on the internet, and (b) he also worked under the direct supervision of Victoria Gor in MLS group of JPL to cellular modeling of development of plants.
