Area of Expertise
Computational Biology
Distributed Systems
Current Position
Senior Research Scientist
Head of the Informatics Core
Degree
Ph.D. Computing Science and Molecular Biology, University of Aberdeen, 1994
Research Interests
Dr. Boyle's main areas of research are in algorithm development and the analysis of heterogeneous biological information. He is presently developing computational tools to analyze data from a number of scientific domains, ranging from gene expression experiments through to fishery acoustics. Dr. Boyle currently directs the Informatics Core, which is designing and building the research enterprise at ISB.
He brings to ISB over ten years experience on both the commercial and research sides of life science informatics. This includes seven years of senior management and executive experience in companies specializing in the development of software for the life science industries. He also has five years research experience in bioinformatics and clinical informatics, during which he was a PI on a number of grants and led a research team.
