James Bullard's Homepage
           
I am a recent graduate from the division of biostatistics at UC Berkeley. I am currently employed at pacific biosciences. My research interests include: Statistical Software design and implementation, High-throughput gene expression analysis, and Model Selection, and Metagenomics.

A current resume can be found here.
