• Jan 2022 - Present

Analysis of human genetic data from genotyping arrays and whole genome sequencing technologies: - Experience in developing algorithms using statistical models and machine learning techniques to study population structure and ancestry. - Study of family structure (kinship). - Identification of carriers of rare variants with clinical impact in public databases (ClinVar, OMIM). - Alignment, QC, and variant calling of whole genome sequencing data using BWA, Samtools, and GATK toolkit pipeline. - Development of PRS models using publicly available GWAS summary statistics for determining risk of complex diseases. Experience in working with genetic data from animals (dogs and cats) for the development of direct-to-consumer genetic tests (DTC-GT). Skills using version control systems like Git and repositories such as Bitbucket for effective collaboration and code management Show less
