Research in a nutshell
In recent years, high-throughput genome sequencing and related technologies have led to a dramatic increase in the quantity of data available to biologists, and require new computational methods to analyse. I am interested in the application of these techniques to the study of neurodevelopmental disorders, such as Intellectual Disabilities (ID) and Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), the rigorous assessment of the efficacy of such analyses, and the development of new techniques.
