Welcome to our website! We are a group of researchers
working in the field of statistical genetics and bioinformatics. We develop statistical
methods for association testing and disease predictions for omics human
genome datasets. We pursue a simple and elegant design to solve real data problems,
using framework generalizable to other similar datasets. We also take great interest in virus genome
mutations. We began the research of influenza H3N2 genetic sequence data
since 2012 from collaboration with virologist friends and CDC. We proposed a series of methods to identify key mutations
that would lead to population immune escape. The rich findings inspired us to
continuingly investigate in the field of viral genetics. The group is homed in the Biostatistics
Division, JC School of Public Health and Primary Care, Faculty of Medicine, the
Chinese University of Hong Kong. We have a wonderful group of collaborators
in the medicine faulty and elsewhere. By integrating bioinformatics, clinical
insights and biomedical data, we work together towards creating new knowledge
in many exciting areas of scientific research, including gut microbiome,
virology, asthma and allergy, cancer research, metabolic disorder, public
health and others. |
