EXPERIENCE
Senior Scientific Programmer:​ ​The Rockefeller University​, New York, NY ​Jan
2015 to Jan 2017
- ​Designed and constructed ​web portal for smell disorder survey​. This is an
adaptive questionnaire given to users worldwide, in order to collect detailed
information about their medical history and condition.
Technologies used:​ Django, MySQL, AWS, BootStrap, Jquery, pandas.
- Created ​portal for molecular connectivity map of the mouse brain​. Integrated
gene expression data obtained from the mouse brain from laboratory experiments
with standardised gene expression and connectivity data Allen Brain Initiative
website (http://brain-map.org).
Technologies used:​ ​R, Python, Limma, Django, MySQL, JSON, MongoDB.
- Created ​portal for analysis of RNASeq gene expression dat​a. The portal allows
for analysis of gene expression data as a counts matrix or cuffdiff file. The portal
allows the user to dynamically set factors for using Limma analysis to find DEGs.
Technologies used:​ ​R, Python, Limma (Bioconductor), Django, MySQL, MongoDB.

2. Scientific Programmer:​ ​Medametrics​, New York, NY ​Oct 2009 to
Jan 2015
- ​Designed and constructed Chronuxplus, ​a web-based tool for use in analysis of
large terabyte EEG time-series data sets​. This is a Python / Django based
web-application, with a C++ / GPU based backend for efficient parallel
computation. The application accepts user​ ​parameters for spectral analysis, and
then performs some numerical computations using​ ​the Python packages numpy,
scipy and spectrum, before submitting a task to a Celery worker​ ​process listening
in on a Rabbit MQ server.
Technologies used: ​Python, Django, Matlab, C++, CUDA, GPU, RabbitMQ,
Celery.
