Current research efforts are concentrated in three main areas: (1) development and implementation of low cost technology systems for quantitative human phenotyping, (2) development and implementation of low cost technology systems for equitable health care delivery, and (3) quantitative trait analysis of complex, multigenic, late-life and time-dependent traits.

The cross-disciplinary research seeks obtain longitudinal phenotype trajectories in diverse human populations to understand gene-by-environment and gene-by-time interactions. The work addresses a fundamental biological question: “What are the human genetic variations that impact the changes observed in an individual’s phenotype over their life-course?” The core strategic challenge is the use of real-world human populations to understand the genetic and environmental interactions of longitudinal biological change. The work focuses on technologies for quantitative, reproducible phenotyping of large and diverse human populations.
