STEVEN J SCHRODI

I received my PhD doing work on mathematical models in molecular evolution and population genetics from University of California, Irvine in 2001. I spent a decade designing and running disease gene mapping studies as well as developing new statistical genetics methods in the biotechnology industry. Following that, I was a Principal Investigator at a medical research institute for a decade where my lab researched complex disease genetics and statistical genetics. At UW-Madison, my lab focuses on three areas: (1) human genetics of immune system diseases, (2) the development of new statistical methods to discover disease-predisposing genetic regions, and (3) theoretical models of disease genetics.
