Our lab develops and applies statistical methods to understand the genetic basis of human disease, with expertise in combining population genetics, genetic epidemiology and functional genomics approaches.

Our current area of interests includes:

  1. Understanding the impact of selection on the architecture of diseases

  2. Optimizing the use of functional datasets linking disease variants to their target genes

  3. Understanding the impact of the environment on molecular phenotypes and diseases

We aim to apply these research directions to the analysis of data from inflammatory diseases and immune cells.
