My research is focused on development of computational and statistical methods for analysis of massive data to understand genetics and biology of complex traits. I have been working on the analysis of large-scale next-generation sequencing data, for which I developed statistical models and software pipelines for detecting sample contamination, variant discovery, machine-learning based variant filtering, and genotyping of structural variations. I also work on genetics of diabetes, obesity, and related traits of Mexican American pedigrees. In the ongoing projects, I am working on models that can incorporate heterogeneous genetic and epigenetic data (DNA sequences, methylation, expression level/RNA sequences, Hi-C data) for comprehensive modeling of high-dimensional phenotypes including metabolomics and microbiome profiles.  Publications/Creative Works Click here to search for this faculty member's publications on PubMed.  Affiliations  Training Grants Training in Precision Environmental Health Sciences (TPEHS)  Appointments Title Department / School Institution Assistant Professor Epidemiology, Human Genetics & Environmental Sciences UT Health Science Center at Houston
