Using computational approaches, Dr. Glusman investigates genome structure and evolution; multi-gene families; prediction and discovery of genes and transcripts; genes not coding for proteins; visualization of complex data; and image analysis. Her algorithms are contributing to the discovery of genes that are not easily identified using standard procedures, to the interpretation of large-scale transcriptomic and genomic data, and to the study of disease genetics.
