Research Description

My research program focuses on developing and using integrative methods including Bayesian approaches to characterize the etiologies of various disorders. Currently, my projects are focused on analyzing multi-omics and biobank datasets to better understand the genetic architecture of neuropsychiatric disorders and substance use disorders. I am also interested in in-depth understanding the genetic etiology of these disorders by using systems biology approaches.
