Research interests

My research concerns statistical problems in genetics and genomics, particularly regarding the characterization of meiotic recombination and the development of improved methods for detecting and identifying genes contributing to variation in complex traits in humans and experimental organisms.

Recent research

• Identifying QTL in experimental crosses
• Development (and maintenance) of the R/qtl software, a package for R
• Recombination and crossover interference
• Analysis of recombinant inbred lines
• Interactive data visualization, focusing particularly on D3
• Various gene mapping projects in mice, rats, humans, and other organisms
