Biography

Rakesh came to Australia in 2002 to study a Masters in Biotechnology at the University of Queensland. Upon finishing, he worked as a research assistant until he recieved a PhD scholarship at the Australian National University, researching a multigene kinase family in Arabidopsis.

Rakesh is highly knowledgeable in the fields of epigenetics and siRNA, however, in recent years has started to shift his focus to computational biology and database curation. He aims to reduce the boundaries between biology and computational biology by encouraging interdisciplinary cooperation between biology and other disciplines.
