Terry Speed is currently a Senior Principal Research Scientist at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research. His lab has a particular focus on molecular data collected by cancer researchers, but also works with scientists studying immune and infectious diseases, and those who do research in basic biomedical science. His research interests are broad, but include the statistical and bioinformatic analysis of microarray, DNA sequence and mass spectrometry data from genetics, genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics. The lab works with molecular data at several different levels, from the lowest level where the data come directly from the instruments that generate it, up to the tasks of data integration, and of relating molecular to clinical data. Speed has served on the editorial board of many publications including the Journal of Computational Biology, JASA, Bernoulli and the Australian and New Zealand Journal of Statistics, and has been recognized by the Australian Prime Minister's Prize for Science and Eureka Prize for Scientific Leadership among other awards.
