Summary

My primary research interest is in the development of new statistical methods for gene localization involving family-based and case-control designs. Currently I am involved in developing methods for diagnostic, longitudinal and multivariate traits for linkage analysis of quantitative phenotypes using variance components approach. I have been actively working with linkage and association analyses in pancreatic and lung cancers, genome wide and candidate gene association analyses in Parkinson's disease and Multiple Sclerosis, and multivariate quantitative traits linkage analysis in families using the Rochester Family Heart Study and in siblings using the GENOA study.
