Itsik Pe'er Lab of Computational Genetics

Our research group is a home to an interdisciplinary team attracting diverse academic backgrounds, analytical talents and skill sets to effectively promote computational understanding of human genetics. We are situated within the Department of Computer Science in Columbia at room 504 (and a couple of desks elsewhere) in the Computer Science Building, and enjoy the community and support of the Center for Computational Biology and Bioinformatics as part of our research environment.
