Research Interests:

I am interested in applying and developing multivariate genomic methods to better understand the genetic architecture of psychiatric disorders. To this end, I investigate the genetic overlap between these disorders with various modifiable risk factors, as well as other behavioral, social, and medical outcomes. Additionally, I disentangle the heterogeneity within psychiatric disorders, by analyzing the similarities and differences between their sub-groups (e.g. stratified by biological sex or age at diagnosis). Overall, my research aims to translate the vast amount of complex genomic findings into improved clinical diagnosis and prevention.
