PeerJ Author & Reviewer

Summary

since 2010 Professor for In Silico Genomics and Vice-Head of Department, Department of Microbiology and Ecosystem Science, University of Vienna
2010 Habilitation (Venia Legendi) in Bioinformatics at the Faculty Science Center Weihenstephan, TU Munich
2005-2010 Group leader and Assistant professor, Department of Genome Oriented Bioinformatics, Technische Universität München, Germany
2001-2005 Staff Scientist, Department of Genome Oriented Bioinformatics, Technische Universität München, Germany

Thomas Rattei (TR) was appointed at the University of Vienna as a full professor heading CUBE, the Division of Computational Systems Biology, by March 2010. Work and experience of TR cover a wide spectrum of topics from bioinformatics, genome and metagenome analysis and systems biology. He has long-standing expertise in developing and applying computational methods for the interpretation of large-scale sequence information. The international reputation of his research group triggered their involvement in numerous international (meta-) genome sequencing and analysis consortia. The research activities of TR are not only covering individual, project-specific questions but also general problems in bioinformatics, computational infrastructure and large-scale biological databases. Furthermore, his group develops novel computational approaches for studying molecular inter-species interactions, such as between hosts and pathogens, between symbionts or in microbial ecosystems.
