Polimanti Lab

Our group is conducting research across multiple domains including Human Genetics, Biological Psychiatry, Evolutionary Biology, Statistical Genetics, and Computational Biology. The overarching goal of our efforts is to understand the link between the human genome and phenome from multiple perspectives. We are part of the Yale Psychiatry Division of Human Genetics, the Yale Department of Biomedical Informatics & Data Science, the Yale Department of Chronic Disease Epidemiology, and the Veterans Affairs Clinical Epidemiology Research Center. Our ongoing studies are currently funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, the National Institute on Mental Health, the Department of the Veterans Affairs, One Mind, and the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Additionally, we are also involved in large collaborative projects including the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium, the Million Veteran Program, and COVID-19 Host Genetic Initiative.

We are always looking forward to recruiting enthusiastic and curious scientists. Get in touch to learn more about current opportunities to support potential trainees.
