My research focuses primarily on nature inspired methodologies to tackle combinatorial and numerical optimization
problems, and computational biology problems. My main tools of interest, in particular, are: Genetic Algorithms,
Clonal Selection Algorithms (a special class of Artificial Immune Systems), and Reverse Engineering
Methodologies.
