Biography
Gagan is working on large scale genomic studies ranging from plant pathogens to complex crop systems. He is exploring genomic data to investigate the genetic diversity of complex plant systems. He also studies the plant pathogen interactions and mechanisms used by the pathogens to cause disease and manipulate the hosts' responses.
Prior to CSIRO, he was working on joint NHMRC project between CMRI, Westmead and Macquarie University towards computational analysis of highly complex libraries of retroviral integration in human and mice genomes.
He completed his PhD in Bioinformatics from Macquarie University in which he worked on research project entitled "In silico identification of novel therapeutic targets from secretome analysis of parasites".
