My research area is evolutionary genomics. I have started my tenure-track position in bioinformatics and statistical genomics at CIGENE. After completing my Ph.D. at the University of Tokyo, Japan, in human evolutionary genetics, I pursued postdoctoral training in bioinformatics, statistical, and functional genomics at the University at Buffalo and the University of Chicago in the US. I am broadly interested in revealing the biological bases of uniquely evolved various species by combining multi-scale data sets such as from genomics, molecular, and cellular level observations.

Please apply for the MSCA postdoc fellowship!!
(yearly call, March)
The Research support office team, NMBU, and I will assist you in preparing your application, but I can only accept about one person per year, as I will spend about the same amount of effort as co-authoring a paper. Similarly, I expect you to work very hard on it.
Celian, from the University of Montpellier, will lead a project to understand the evolution of structural variants after whole-genome duplication in Atlantic salmon. He is co-supervised by Drs. Nicola Barson and Simen Sandve.
