Profile
I am a statistical geneticist, who develops methods for better analysing data from genome-wide association studies. My primary interests are detecting causal variants, creating genetic prediction models, understanding genetic architecture, and classificaiton of complex diseases. I created and maintain the software LDAK (www.ldak.org).
