Large-scale modelling of genomic and environmental variation

Led by Ivan Pocrnic and Gregor Gorjanc

Summary

This seeding project will start a partnership between large-scale genomic modelling efforts at the Roslin Institute and large-scale environmental modelling expertise at the School of Mathematics. It will:

  • Initiate research on reducing computational burden of large-scale genomic modelling by leveraging recently proposed methods for large-scale environmental modelling,

  • Scope opportunities for joint genetic and environmental modelling, and

  • Prepare the environmental modelling community on the forth- coming high-dimensional data deluge currently experienced in genomics
