What We Work On

Content

We investigate a range of topics in statistical and human genetics to improve the accuracy and applicability of genomic analyses across global populations. Our research spans three primary areas: (1) applied and analytic work in statistical genetics; (2) investigations into human population structure and evolutionary history; and (3) the development of scalable computational methods and tools for population-aware genetic analysis.
