Research Interests

Dr. Auer is a statistical geneticist with expertise in the analysis of whole genome sequencing and multi-omic data. He has collaborated on several large-scale projects focused on understanding the genetic basis of complex diseases such as stroke, heart disease, and cancer. He collaborates with faculty in the Department of Physiology, the Center of International Blood & Marrow Transplant Research, and the MCW Cancer Center. His current research interests include multi-omic data analysis for predicting phenotypic states and disease outcomes and developing methods to detect clonal mosaicism.
