About our Lab
Our lab is interested in computational approaches to understanding biological function and the genetic basis of diseases. Our work falls into three interrelated aims.
- Predicting functional network organization of the cell
- Network scale analysis of complex multigenic disorders
- Autworks: decoding the genotype-phenotype map for Autism
