I am an adjunct Professor of Biostatistics at the School of Public Health. I have been a mentor to over 35 students, post-doctoral and junior faculty trainees on research projects, and I have mentored many students, fellows and faculty in career development. I have also served as a mentor for the early-career faculty development program. I was fortunate to have outstanding and influential mentors throughout my career, and I strongly believe in "paying it forward" by providing the kind of mentoring that I was fortunate to receive.

My research expertise is statistical genetics, with special emphasis on the development and implementation of new statistical approaches for rare variant analysis, gene by environment evaluation and meta-analysis, with a focus on the analysis of family data. These new methods have been applied to multiple disease areas, such as type-2 diabetes and related traits, pulmonary functions and inflammation biomarkers, in order to elucidate the genetic architecture of these traits.
