Rohan Williams is a computational biologist and currently Head of the Integrative Analysis Unit at the Singapore Centre for Environmental Life Sciences Engineering, a multidisciplinary centre for biofilm and complex microbial community research. Williams studied physics as an undergraduate prior to obtaining a PhD in human gastrointestinal physiology in 2003 at the University of New South Wales (Sydney, Australia). Following post-doctoral work in bioinformatics, genetics and genomics at UNSW (2004-2007), he held an academic appointment at the Australian National University in Canberra (2007-2011) before relocating to Singapore.
His research program is focused on development new data-driven methods for studying the composition and function of complex microbial communities, mostly the context of wastewater communities.
Williams has published around 70 peer-review papers and his h-index is estimated to be 25.
