Manoj Goplkrishnan

The purpose of this visit was two-fold: (i) to teach a course during the Monsoon school, (ii) to continue collaborative work with Sandeep Krishna on Bayesian inference in biological processes. Manoj has demonstrated the link between chemical networks and Bayesian posterior calculations of models consisting of combinations of Poisson processes. In collaboration with Sandeep Krishna, he's now looking at the application of these ideas to bacterial quorum sensing systems and bacteriophage decision networks.
