CURRENT INTERESTS:

My research interests are in the area of statistical genetics and cover many subtopics within the area. I am most fascinated by the use of inheritance in humans to understand human disease, health and associated quantitative traits. This is a running theme and motivation throughout my work. I love the interface between science and statistics and find that the best statistical methods come out of collaboration. My past work has included methods development in family-based association testing and genetics of gene expression studies. I have also worked over many other areas of statistical genetics from classical segregation studies to linkage and association studies. I am currently looking for a new area of methods work and am particularly interested in aspects of the human microbiome.

Key interests:  statistical genetics, genetic epidemiology, genetics of gene expression, variance components methods, multivariate linkage, linkage disequilibrium, family-based association tests, meta-analysis, microbiome; high-dimensional data
