Deconstructing complex diseases : identification of new phenotypical sub-clusters of Type 2 diabetes using machine learning
… subtypes, cause, consequence, and presentation. Modern genetics have shown that these diseases often have multiple subtypes, as well as multiple phenotypes as indicated by the new laboratory data. Examples of such diseases include common and important illness such as Type 2 diabetes (T2D) - …

Information-sharing models for computational genetics
Modern genetics has been transformed by a dramatic explosion of data. As sample sizes and the number of measured data types grow, the need for computational methods tailored to deal with these noisy and complex datasets increases. In this thesis, we develop and apply integrated computational and …

Statistics for Learning Genetics
… statistics/mathematics as it applies to genetics. The data are based on analyses of current representative genetics texts, practicing genetics professors' perspectives, and more directly, students' perceptions of, and performance in, doing statistically-based genetics problems. This issue …

Studies on Genomic G-Quadruplexes
… structure of DNA is well known, and the basis of modern genetics and molecular biology. However, DNA is polymorphic, and can adopt a variety of different structures. In this dissertation, I focus on a four-stranded structure that can be formed by guanine-rich sequences. These are known as …

Investigation of the Conservation of Biological Function in Transposable Elements using a Multiple Alignment Strategy
… been relatively understudied since the dawn of modern genetics due to its sheer size and complexity. It was not until the last two decades that recent breakthrough in sequencing technology overcame those difficulties. Among many interesting findings, more than half of the non-coding genome was …
