Identifying the complex genetic architectures of disease
This is the documentation page for the Epistasis Lab, a research group at at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, CA (USA).
In a nutshell, our lab develops computational methods to identify the complex genetic and environmental interactions that lead to human disease. Our methods address challenges such as epistasis, heterogeneity, and scalability.
