Development of clustering methods to identify clonal variation and integrated methods to differentiate between driver and passenger mutations in tumours.

Past Major Projects

ADVANCE (Atherosclerotic Disease, VAscular functioN, and genetiC Epidemiology) is a multicenter (Stanford University, Kaiser Permanente, UCSF) Study aimed at providing better care for patients with atherosclerotic coronary heart disease through the application of modern genetic approaches. (http://med.stanford.edu/advance/)

Family Blood Pressure Program (FBPP) is a large multi-center genetic study of high blood pressure and related conditions in multiple ethnic groups. The program in turn consists of four multi-center Networks: GenNet, GENOA, HyperGEN and SAPPHIRe.  (http://www.biostat.wustl.edu/fbpp/FBPP.shtml)
