Modern biology is unimaginable without sequence analysis, and sequence analysis is impossible without bioinformatics tools and statistical methods. Over the past twenty years, and in collaboration with numerous interdisciplinary collaborators, we have been developing and applying these tools to study various systems, especially viral pathogens. Our research is not limited to any particular set of evolutionary questions, methods, or computational approaches. Instead, we try to identify and implement practical and statistically justifiable solutions to specific problems. We focus on delivering high-quality, computationally efficient, and user-friendly scientific software offering solutions to challenging questions.
