Research Interests
My research interests are in statistical genetics and development of statistical
methods. Software for most of my projects is available on my website.
Specific current research interests include:
- methods for haplotype analysis in dependent samples
- methods for genetic association analysis, including methods for binary,
quantitative, longitudinal and X-linked traits
- spectral analysis of population structure and other approaches to unknown
population structure, particularly in the context of genetic association
analysis
- methods to detect association with copy number variation
- methods for genetic analysis in isolated populations
- relationship inference
- quasi-likelihood methods, problems of incomplete data, and
applications of random matrix theory in statistical genetics
