Statistical data integration for  genomic and epigenomic data 

 

Abstract: My group works on high dimensional statistical genomics and epigenomics with a specific emphasis on data integration problems. In this seminar, I will present our statistical approaches for NGS read-level data integration for studying repetitive regions of the genome and data integration for genomewide-association studies.
