MacArthur’s lab seeks to accurately identify DNA variants affecting gene function and human disease risk from large-scale datasets containing genetic information from more than 90,000 human genomes. He also studies transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) approaches to better understand the impact of variants on human gene function. His lab leads an international consortium, the Exome Aggregation Consortium […]
