Lab / team: Williams Lab
Overview
Williams Lab, in the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at the University at Buffalo, studies the genetic and neurobiological basis of neurological and neurodevelopmental conditions. Mohammad Aarish Khan contributes through FLAMES and FUMA-based analysis of GWAS data sets.
Research question
How can genomic and computational analysis help illuminate the genetic architecture underlying neurological conditions?
Motivation
Understanding the genetic underpinnings of neurological conditions may provide insight into disease mechanisms and inform more targeted research strategies.
Methodology
Computational genetics pipelines, statistical analysis, and evidence-based interpretation of gene-level associations.
Outcomes
Ongoing. The work contributes to understanding how genetic data can be analyzed to support research on neurological conditions.
