Luke Jen O’Connor received his Ph.D. from the Bioinformatics and Integrative Genomics (BIG) program at Harvard Medical School in 2019, and he was a Schmidt Fellow/PI at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. The O’Connor Lab focuses on the genetic architecture of common disease, on statistical methods development, and on the problem of translating genetic associations into biological insight.
