My research covers following areas:

• Privacy preserving data mining and data management. I am interested in algorithms for preserving privacy of data.
  　
• Data exploration. Database users often find it difficult to find useful information from databases. Their queries often return too many irrelevant answers. I am interested in using data mining, navigation, and information retrieval techniques to help user narrow down their scope of search and quickly locate relevant answers. 
  　
• Data integration. I am interested in issues in integrating data from multiple biology or environmental databases and improving the quality of data.
