Summary

  • My career focus is on implementing precision/genomic medicine in children with genetic diseases. This entails development of tools and technologies for genome interpretation, genomic diagnosis and clinical decision support, and performance of clinical trials of genomic medicine protocols. I have had a wide variety of research experiences in positions of varying responsibility and have had a continuous track record of funding and publication productivity. I spend a considerable proportion of my time currently training and mentoring students and junior faculty members and integrating them into multidisciplinary research teams where they can exert significant impact by virtue of their unique skills.
