About

Heather Cordell is a Professor of Statistical Genetics at Newcastle University, UK. Her research areas include genome-wide association studies, genetic correlations, and the identification of causal loci related to various complex conditions. She has contributed to recent publications exploring genetic variants linked to diseases such as primary sclerosing cholangitis and age-related macular degeneration, as well as methodologies for predicting methylation levels from SNP genotype data.
