Both Dr. Kelsey Jorgensen and Dr. Obed Garcia presented their research at the KU Center for Genomics Research Symposium (KUCG) in Lawrence, Kansas!
Dr. Kelsey Jorgensen presents her research “The impact of human dietary adaptation on global genetic variation” that identified global population genetic variation that could represent candidate loci for the treatment of related metabolic disorders that are prevalent today.
Dr. Obed Garcia presents his research “Identifying immune-related signatures of selection in an admixed Guatemalan cohort” which examined how diverse ancestry can harbor unique genetic loci related to Dengue and other infectious diseases.
