Asuman Turkmen develops statistical methods for analyzing genetic data, with a particular focus on correcting for population stratification (differences in ancestry that can confound genetic studies) and detecting rare and X-linked genetic variant effects in family-based studies. The work often uses Bayesian shrinkage techniques (a way to stabilize estimates when there are many variables) and other regression-based tools, and has also extended into general statistical methodology applied outside genetics, such as variable selection in transportation modeling.

Publication output has been modest and fairly steady but slow over the last decade, averaging about one paper per year with occasional gaps (e.g., 2018, 2022).
