Research Interests
碍别测飞辞谤诲蝉:听psychiatric genetics, statistical genetics, genomics, structural variation
Dr Jin Szatkiewicz is Associate Professor in the Department of Genetics and Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She received BS and MA in biochemistry and molecular biology, PhD in biostatistics, and completed post-doctoral training in statistical genetics and psychiatric genomics.
Dr. Szatkiewicz鈥檚 research involves both statistical genetics and psychiatric genomics. She is the principal investigator of NIH K01, R21, and R01 grants focusing on understanding how copy number variation impacts schizophrenia. She has extensive experience in both developing statistical methods and software tools designed to quantify genetic hypotheses and applying these methods to solve real-world problems in psychiatry. Dr Szatkiewicz is an active member of the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium, the Swedish Schizophrenia Study, and the Genetic Consortium of Anorexia Nervosa.
