The Leffler Lab

Research in the Leffler lab focuses on evolutionary and population genetics in humans and other primates. We apply computational approaches to diverse genomics datasets to study the origin, evolution, and functional consequences of genetic variation. We are especially interested in structural variation and variation that influences malaria susceptibility within and between species.

We are currently recruiting graduate students and postdocs. See here for how to apply.
