Projects and Organizations

Bejerano Lab

In spring 2007, I started working in Bejerano Lab (http://bejerano.stanford.edu). My office is in Bechman 321. I am building a tool (i.e. a program) to associate gene ontology annotations (GO), or other annotations of a similar nature, with specified genetic elements using association rules such as proximity rule. This will be published on the web and used by biologists in finding meaning of non-exonic regions especially ultraconserved regions.

Motion and Gait Analysis Laboratory

In Winter 2007, I took ORTHO 222 Anatomy of Movement. As a part of the class, I get to work with the Motion and Gait Analysis Lab, Lucie Packard Children's Hospital, in analyzing golf swings of professional golfers. I wrote a MATLAB program that analyzes data from motion capture cameras and calculates X-factor, stance torque, and various speeds related to golf swings.

Stanford-Thai Exchange Program

STEP is a three-week exchange program that brings six to ten Thai participants onto Stanford campus to conduct research of their choice and/ or initiate a project of their interest as well as to immerse them in Stanford’s unique culture, which I am sure you are aware of. The program is designed for motivated and open-minded students. The goals of STEP are to broaden participants' perspectives and to develop new ways of thinking and of approaching issues, both cultural and intellectual.

In 2006-2007, I was a co-director of STEP.

Wikipitaka: A Completing Tipitaka

Wikipitaka is an attempt to compile and complete an English translation of the Tipitaka, the Buddhist sacred scripture, and its commentaries in order to enable complete features of online text: searching, browsing, linking, instant editing as well as looking up terms in an online dictionary.

This is my class project for CS73N, but I do take it seriously.
