Research in the Casey Overby Lab focuses on the intersection of public health genomics and biomedical informatics. We’re currently developing applications to support the translation of genomic research to clinical and population-based health care settings. We’re also working to develop knowledge-based ways to use big data — including electronic health records — to improve population health.

The mission the Translational Informatics Research and Innovation (TIRI) Lab is to understand and create advanced technology and digital device solutions that address challenges to the translation of biomedical data science-informed guidance into clinical use to improve the health of individuals, especially for people that are often underrepresented in research.
