Jordan Lab @ Georgia Tech

The Jordan Lab at Georgia Tech in Atlanta, GA is a leading research facility specializing in bioinformatics and computational genomics. They collaborate with prestigious institutions such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Emory School of Medicine to develop innovative computational approaches to address public health challenges, including the analysis of microbial genome sequences and the search for genomic determinants of pathogenicity and antibiotic resistance.

Additionally, the lab focuses on studying the relationship between human ancestry and genomic determinants of health and fitness, particularly in admixed populations from Latin America. They also develop and apply algorithms for the analysis of next-generation sequencing data sets, with applications in functional genomics and regenerative medicine. The lab is actively engaged in capacity building efforts in Latin America, aiming to apply bioinformatics and genomics technologies to regional-specific challenges in public health and economic development.
