Projects

  • Extending the Transmission Disequilibrium Test to Quantify Burden of Functional Variants in Biological Pathways: A Pilot Study on Congenital Heart Defects

    - Developed a novel statistical test that examines allele transmission from healthy parents to children with birth defects and identifies biological pathways associated with the birth defect
    - Implemented test and simluation of null distribution in Python using no 3rd party code
    - Optimized code and implemented a MapReduce system to distribute code across a parallel computing cluster
    - Tested on SNP array dataset for ~50 patients with Congenital Heart Defects and identified…
