The McGill CERC in Genomic Medicine program was allocated 5 Tenure-Track positions and on Jan 1, 2021, the first PI of the CERC joined us! Daniel Taliun was recruited at McGill in the Department of Human Genetics as an Assistant Professor. He obtained his Ph.D. in Computer Science at the University of Bozen-Bolzano, Italy and did his post-doctoral research at the University of Michigan, USA. His work is focused on the development of computational algorithms and software tools for the analysis of genetic data combined with molecular, behavioural, imaging and environmental data. The scope of his research includes genetic and clinical data integration, web-based interactive visualizations, secure data sharing, and distributed computational algorithms for in-house and cloud computing computational platforms.
