Our group is at the intersection of genomics, biomedical informatics and psychiatry and has two broad research interests. 1) Capturing and extracting information to aid in elucidating genetic etiology of behavioral health traits and psychiatric diagnoses. 2) Utilizing genetics/genomics to understand biological mechanism and interventional strategies of psychiatric disorders
