Overview

Dr. Schlosser's research focuses on molecular epidemiology in the form of population-based biomedical science including statistical genetics/genomics and big data. His scientific aims include the identification of new biomarkers of disease, understanding the underlying causal mechanisms and developing the methods enabling the former two.
