Q&A with Professor Kathryn Roeder
We talk to Professor Kathryn Roeder about her research ahead of her keynote address at INSAR 2019.
This year’s International Society for Autism Research (INSAR) Annual Meeting is being held between 1st and 4th May. The meeting will be opened with a keynote address, ‘De novoVariation in Coding and Noncoding Regions: What We Can Learn from the Data About Etiological Pathways’ from Professor Kathryn Roeder.
Professor Roeder is Vice Provost for Faculty and Professor of Statistics and Computational Biology at Carnegie Mellon University. In addition to being the recipient of the 2013 Janet L. Norwood Award, and both the 1997 COPPS Snedecor and Presidents’ Award, she has published over 275 papers to date.
Thanks for taking the time to speak to us. Your research is predominantly based around statistical genetics. Would you be able to explain where your main fields of expertise lie, and how statistical genetics can be applied autism research?
