Dean’s Lecture | Dr. William S. Bush | Kernel Methods for Genomic Analysis: A Mathematical Map for Biological Function

May 19 @ 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm

Join Us! Dean’s Distinguished Lecture with Dr. William S. Bush

Dr. William S. Bush

Dr. William S. Bush

Current genomic analysis in research settings often relies on traditional statistical methods that struggle to capture complex, non-linear relationships in high-dimensional genomic data. Join us to explore how kernel methods reveal biological meaning in genomic data through spatial analysis and clinical insight.

Dr. William S. Bush’s work combines advances in human genetics, bioinformatics and machine learning to investigate how genetic variation influences human disease. By integrating electronic health records and genomic data, his work bridges computational analysis with clinical application, advancing our understanding of complex genetic architectures and contributing to initiatives like the Alzheimer’s Disease Sequencing Project.
