My Second Paper!
Last year I went to a conference in St. Louis and presented some research I had worked on with some colleagues in the Genetic Epidemiology group at the University of Utah. It’s not tied directly to my dissertation work, but it was a good opportunity to collaborate with some great people and learn some new things. As a result, we also got the paper published in a journal called BMC Proceedings. This journal is not published in paper format (I don’t think). It just serves as a way for conferences to publish results.
Anyway, the idea behind the paper is to explore how well you can predict whether someone will have cholesterol problems based on their genetic profile. We expanded on some work that others have done by adding weights to the genetic markers. Here’s a link to the paper if anyone is interested. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2795945/?itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_SingleItemSupl.Pubmed_DiscoveryDbLinks&ordinalpos=1&tool=pubmed
