Ian Korf works in genomics at the interface between biology and quantitative methods. His work has advanced gene prediction, sequence alignment, motif detection, epigenetics, intron function, protein-DNA interactions, ChIP-seq analysis, centromere evolution, DNA repair, high performance computing, RNA processing, and milk biology. Students in the Korf laboratory are co-mentored by experimental molecular biologists so that students get a multi-disciplinary experience that integrates in vivo and in silico biology
