Description
The goal is to examine the interplay between emerging genomic technologies, population- based studies, and developing statistical and computational methods. This conference,supported by a grant from the NCI and NHLBI, seeks to engage statisticians, genomic epidemiologists and computational biologists in discussions of design, data, and analysis issues in the increasing number of genomic studies in the population sciences.
The conference will focus on three important areas and aims at in-depth discussions of major quantitative issues in these three areas:
Genome-wide association studies
Gene-environment interactions
Emerging “omics” techniques in population sciences.
Each topic would consist of two parts: a session of three talks followed by a panel discussion session.
