Molecular Epidemiology of Ageing
We are interested in all thing omics, epidemiology, and ageing. Our group are based in the Centre for Genomic and Experimental Medicine at the University of Edinburgh.
Our primary research goal is to use computational models to understand the molecular mechanisms that underlie Alzheimer’s disease, leading to enhanced prediction, and ultimately mitigation of the disease. We have a passion for research into ageing and, in particular, examining the genetic and environmental contributions to health and neurodegeneration.
