Research
Overview
Ongoing Projects:
- Allele Frequency Database (ALFRED) is designed to make allele frequency data on human population samples readily available for use by the scientific and educational communities. Designed and implemented under the direction of Kenneth Kidd, PhD (Population Genetics)
- Forensic Resource & Reference On Genetics knowledge base (FROG-kb) seeks to make allele frequency data for SNPs and other genetic polymorphisms more useful in a forensic setting. The primary objective of FROG-kb is to provide a web interface that, from a forensic perspective, is useful for teaching and research and can serve as a tool facilitating forensic practice. Designed and implemented under the direction of Kenneth Kidd, PhD (Population Genetics)
- Yale Center for Asthma and Airway Diseases (YCAAD) is a database application designed and implemented under the direction of Geoffrey Chupp, MD; YCAAD is the data repository for ongoing clinical research in airway diseases.
- Electronic Medical Management of Asthma (EMMA) is a web based tool that seeks to provide cutting edge care to patients with asthma.
- PainEASE is an application designed to assist Veterans with learning pain self-management skills
- Strategies to Reduce Injuries and Develop Confidence in Elders (STRIDE) - clinical trial to test individually tailored interventions to prevent fall-related injuries.
