Daniel D. Kinnamon

Daniel D. Kinnamon studies the genetics of inherited heart conditions (such as cardiomyopathies and heart rhythm disorders) and neurodegenerative diseases like ALS/FTD, with particular attention to family-based statistical methods for identifying disease-associated genes and understanding why some gene carriers do not develop disease (reduced penetrance). This work supports genetic counseling and predictive testing for at-risk relatives. Students would likely engage with statistical genetics, epidemiology, and clinical genomics of rare inherited conditions.

Publication output has grown notably since 2021, rising from just 1-3 papers per year earlier in the decade to a steadier 5-8 papers per year in recent years.
