Current Projects
GWAS Studies: Searching for Disease Markers in JIA and Other Chronic Autoimmune Arthropathies of Childhood
This project is a collaboration with David Glass, MD, Susan Thompson, PhD, et al. to enhance prediction of HLA alleles from SNP data as an intermediate molecular phenotype.
Identification of Potential Targets for Therapeutics: Markers of Distinct Subtypes of Kidney Cancer
This project is a collaboration with Maria Czyzyk-Krzeska, MD, PhD, et al. to identify proteins whose expression patterns correlate with VHL status and effectively stratify RCC.
Virtual Screening and Drug Design: Searching for Small Molecules Targeting Proteins of Interest
These collaborations involve Yi Zheng, PhD, et al. (targeting small GTPases and their interactions in leukemia) and Jason Jiang, PhD, et al. (targeting Norwalk virus).
