My research focus is on developing both new statistical methods and computational techniques to overcome the difficult problems in the analysis of genetic and genomic...
Our lab aims to understand how natural selection has contributed to the evolution of our species and to which extent past selection events impact present-day...
Many of the traits that we care about, as evolutionary biologists, human geneticists, or simply as human beings, are genetically complex. This means that genetic...
My primary research is driven by the need for powerful statistical methods to address the challenges those technologies have posed for data analysis and interpretation...
Our group focuses on computational approaches to discover and characterize context-specific genetic effects on complex disorders. This includes polygenic methods for...
Research in our labs focuses on the genetic architecture of traits and diseases that vary across human populations and on understanding the role of natural selection in...
