Research Interests

I have a longstanding interest in human genome variation and particularly the role of structural genetic variation in human neurodevelopmental disorders. My research is focused on application of new sequencing approaches for a deeper understanding of human genome architecture and for development of improved clinical diagnostics pipelines. In my role as co-director of the Genomics Platform, I have keen interest in new technologies and new applications in the genomics field in general.
