Genes & Human Disease Research Program
What We Do
The human genome is composed of more than 3 billion nucleotides that essentially functions as a molecular hard drive that stores all the information needed for how the cells in our body function. Of the 3 billion nucleotides, roughly 2% encodes for the different proteins that perform the various cellular functions needed for life. The remaining 98% of the human genome regulates what, when, and how each gene is expressed during the life of a cell. The random inheritance of different variations of the DNA sequences of encoded genes and non-protein coding regulatory regions from a person’s parents provides, in many ways, the characteristics that make each individual unique. Unfortunately, inheritance of genetic variations also increases a person’s risk of developing different human diseases.
The Genes and Human Disease Research Program focuses on identifying and understanding how genetic variations cause human diseases. While our investigators share this focus, each has their own specific interests including determining the function of non-coding RNA, and understanding how the complex 3D organization of the genome, disease-associated non-coding variants, and the epigenome regulate gene expression in health and disease. In addition, our faculty are developing and applying new machine and deep-learning approaches to identify new disease-associated genetic variations and define disease-associated gene networks.
The Genes and Human Disease Research Program works closely with the OMRF CLIA certified Clinical Genomics Center, the OMRF CAP-accredited Biorepository and the OMRF Quantitative Analysis Core. These Cores were established using funding from various grants through the NIH Institutional Development Award (IDeA) program, and continue to be supported by the OMRF. Our investigators benefit from the state-of-the-art sequencing technologies, sample procurement, processing and storage, and data analysis expertise afforded by these Cores.
