Research interests

My main research involves the development of statistical methods for the analysis of population genetic data. Specifically, I work with models for linkage disequilibrium (LD), and develop applications for taking proper account of the dependence among nearby loci. These applications include haplotype inference, missing genotype imputation, disease mapping, genotype error detection and correction, the visualization of haplotype variation, and the integration of emerging data types such as next generation DNA sequencing. For these applications I maintain a widely-used software package called fastPHASE.
