Human Genome Array: Technology for Functional Analysis
Role: co-PI and informatics co-director

The overall grant is funding for the Yale CEGS (center of excellence in genomic sciences) focused on building human genome arrays (for not just genes but whole chromosomes) and developing novel technologies using these arrays for functional analysis of the human genome. The Gerstein lab contribution is to construct computational tools for designing and building the arrays, analyzing the resulting data, and integrating this with other genomic information.

Further information about the center can be found at http://bioinfo.mbb.yale.edu/array
