I received my PhD from Department of Statistics at University of Washington in the year 2005. I worked in statistical genetics track with my advisor Prof. Elizabeth Thompson . Prior to that I did my Masters in Statistics from Indian Statistical Institute, Calcutta, India.



Research

The focus of my research is developing statistical methodologies for genetic mapping of complex traits. In particular, I have developed trait-model-free approaches for linkage detection using extended pedigrees. My general interest includes computational statistics, nonparametric inferences and their application in different areas of statistical genetics.
