Talk title: Tissue-specific enhancer-gene maps from multimodal single-cell data identify causal alleles and genes for complex traits

The Center for Genetic Epidemiology is hosting an in-person and virtual seminar with Saori Sakaue, MD, PhD (https://immunogenomics.hms.harvard.edu/people/saori-sakaue), candidate for Professor at The Center for Genetic Epidemiology at USC. Dr. Saori is an MD/PhD postdoctoral fellow within Dr. Soumya Raychaudhuri’s lab at Harvard Medical School and Broad Institute. Her current research focus is to devise integrative analytical methods with population-scale genetics and multi-modal single-cell genomics data to define causal mechanisms of autoimmune diseases.
