\"H.<\/p>

H. Robert Frost, PhD<\/a><\/h3>\n

QBS Director<\/strong>
\nDr. Frost's research focuses on the development of novel bioinformatics and biostatistical methods for high-dimensional data analysis. Applied research areas include gene set testing, gene-gene and gene-environment interactions, biomedical ontologies and cancer genomics. Statistical topics of interest include penalized regression, principal component analysis, random matrix theory and optimization.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

Michael Whitfield, PhD<\/a><\/h3>\n

Chair of Biomedical Data Science<\/strong>
\nDr. Whitfield's work focuses on is Precision Medicine in systemic sclerosis (SSc). His laboratory is identifying gene expression biomarkers that subset SSc patients, predict clinical endpoints, and assess response to therapy. The lab is focused on understanding the pathophysiology of the disease, analyzing molecular data from SSc clinical trials, perform network analyses on SSc genomic data, and using this information for drug repositioning efforts.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

Margaret Karagas, PhD<\/a><\/h3>\n

Chair of Epidemiology<\/strong>
\nProfessor Karagas' research encompasses interdisciplinary studies to illuminate the etiology of human cancers, along with adverse pregnancy and children's health outcomes. Her work seeks to identify emerging environmental exposures, host factors and mechanisms - that impact health from infancy to adult life, and to apply novel methods and technologies to understand disease pathogenesis.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
