Dr David Hill
David's research focuses on uncovering the genetic architecture of complex psychological traits. Included in this is the use of post GWAS (Goal, How it works, Applications, Common diseases, Software) analysis methods such as pathway analysis and prioritising variants for further analysis. He is particularly interested in using these methods to elucidate the basis of intelligence, schizophrenia, cognitive ageing, depression and ADHD in humans.
Dr Charley Xia
Charley Xia is a post-doctoral researcher specialising in quantitative genetics. He has studied the genetic architecture of human complex traits for over a decade and currently is interested in the genetics of cognitive ability and socioeconomic position and their links to health.
