Welcome to the home page of Bhaskar DasGupta!
I am an Associate Professor in the Computer Science department at University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC). I am also affiliated with the Bioengineering department at UIC.
My specific research interests include designing and implementing efficient computational methods for computationally hard problems in bioinformatics, systems biology and hybrid systems. For example, my recent works for the last couple of years have dealt with synthesizing signal transduction networks from both direct and couble-causal experimental evidences, understanding their dynamical and connectivity nature (properties) and reverse engineering such networks via sub-modular response methods. Outside systems biology and biological networks, I have also been involved in other research projects such as protein sequence designs and protein substructure comparisons in proteomics and DNA bar-coding issues.
Outside biology, my broader research interests in computer science include designing efficient algorithms for computationally hard problems in diverse areas such as computational geometry, VLSI/CAD, parallel computing, optical networks, graph-theoretic problems and combinatorial auctions. I am also interested in lower-bound proofs for computationally hard problems. My research works have been supported by NSF grants, including an NSF career award.
