I do bioinformatics in the CeMEB research platform at the Department of Biological and Environmental Sciences, University of Gothenburg. Also teaching, mainly UNIX and phylogenomics.
More Information
A common theme of my research projects is the evolution of chloroplasts, and I am particularly interested in the evolution of the two protein complexes “Translocons at the Outer and Inner Chloroplast envelope membranes” (TOC and TIC respectively). These protein complexes transport nuclear-encoded proteins into the chloroplast, and the evolution of TOC/TIC is an important part of the transformation of the ancient cyanobiont into a modern chloroplast.
I am also interested in how science is conducted and displayed (e.g. Open data and Open access publishing), and I have started documenting my research in an open laboratory notebook that can be found here (first entry posted 2011-06-12). I’m still exploring the opportunities of open notebook science (ONS), why early entries in my notebook looks quite different from later once.
