Research summary
AI-generated

R. W. Doerge works at the intersection of genetics and statistics, developing quantitative methods for mapping genes that influence traits (quantitative trait loci, or QTL) in plants and animals. Their work also includes statistical techniques for multiple testing (methods to control error rates when running many statistical tests at once) and analyzing complex, high-dimensional biological data. This research supports plant and animal breeding studies and genetic data analysis more broadly.

Publication output was more active around 2017-2019 but has slowed considerably in recent years, with very few outputs from 2020 onward.
