Realizing the benefits of human genetics and genomics research for people everywhere.
Posted By: HGG Advances HGGA: What motivated you to start working on this project? TZ: As a researcher with biostatistics training, I feel it is crucial to get my hands on real-world data to validate the efficiency of many methods that people develop on paper or whiteboards. My advisor kindly offered me this opportunity! HGGA:... Read More
Posted By: HGG Advances HGGA: What motivated you to start working on this project? CS: In order to move from genome-wide associated loci toward potentially effective clinical and therapeutic targets, we need to identify which target/effector gene(s) the associate variants are being modulated. There are multiple methods that currently exist that can be used to... Read More
Posted By: HGG Advances HGGA: what motivated you to start working on this project? TN: I have been involved in several BRCA1-related projects and what has always driven me is the clinical consequences of identifying carriers of BRCA1 germline pathogenic variants. These individuals are at substantially higher risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer than... Read More
