About the speaker
Dr. Ye Ding is a statistician by training. Since late 1990s, he has been working on novel algorithms for RNA secondary structure predictions and applications to the rational design of RNA-targeting nucleic acids and the identification of targets for regulatory RNAs. He is the developer of the Sfold software for RNA folding and applications (http://sfold.wadsworth.org), available since April 2003. The Sfold web server has been accessed by scientists around the world to fold over 100,000 nucleotide sequences.
Sfold has been featured by Science NetWatch, Nature Research Highlights, a NAR front cover, Genome Technology, and Faculty of 1000 Biology evaluations.
