Statistical Genetics Training Resources

We are an international group of statistical geneticists who wish to make training resources available to the genetics community. We offer tutorials for a variety of analysis tools/software. We also offer courses on a variety of topics related to analysis of human genetic data.

Our group

• Heather Cordell, Ph.D. (Newcastle University)
• Andrew DeWan, Ph.D. (Yale University)
• Suzanne M. Leal, Ph.D. (Columbia University and Rockefeller University)
• Michael Nothnagel, Ph.D. (University of Cologne)
• Gao T. Wang, Ph.D. (Columbia University)
