I'm Thomas Gilgenast, a computational biologist doing research at the intersection of genomics, machine learning, and drug discovery.

I spend most of my time doing [research](/research), [coding](/code), taking [pictures of our cat, Lux](/galleries/lux), and ballroom dancing.

I also dabble in [music](https://soundcloud.com/wangilshen-and-sons), photography of [light and shadow](https://edge-of-night-or-riot-blog.tumblr.com), and [webcomics](http://romanchickens.gilgi.org). I've also been known to type out [math notes](/math).
