Our lab researches machine learning and its application to cheminformatics, bioinformatics, and computational sustainability. We are always interested in interesting new research areas both for applied and fundamental machine learning. Currently, we are particularly interested in reliability of machine learning models, adversarial machine learning, and bias, with applications in chemistry, epidemiology, and environmental research.

To learn more about our lab, check out our publications or read more about our research and projects.

You can join us as PhD student, Honours student, or other postgraduate student. You can also visit our lab as visiting researcher or student.
