Research Interests
Keywords: Bioinformatics, computational biology, genetics, genomics, immunology, pathogenesis and infection, systems biology, virology
In the Ferris lab, we use genetically diverse mouse strains to better understand the role of genetic variation in immune responses to a variety of insults. We then study these variants mechanistically. We also develop genetic and genomic datasets and resources to better identify genetic features associated with these immunological differences.
