Tin did his PhD dissertation studying the bacterial genomes, analysing how horizontal transfer of DNA segments between bacteria facilitates their evolution and shapes their scaling laws. Thereafter, Tin continues his work on bacterial genomics, develops model to describe how DNA transfer shapes nucleotide substitution, and applies this model on the phylogenetic tree reconstruction of closely related bacterial strains that experience frequent DNA transfer.
In addition, Tin also studies metabolism in bacteria, exploring how adaptive evolution through DNA transfer constrains the network properties of metabolism, and how the limited space in the cytoplasm constrains the resource allocation among enzymes, ribosomes, and other molecular machineries in a bacterial cell.
