Welcome to the Center for Integrative Genomics at Georgia Tech. We are a virtual affiliation of researchers interested in the application of genome-wide research strategies to diverse biological themes. In our center we – conduct quantitative genetic analysis of genomes, transcriptomes, proteomes, metabolomes, and phenomes; foster partnerships within the School of Biology, across Georgia Tech, and with collaborators in the Atlanta region; and study the complex interaction between genes, culture, and the environment in an evolutionary context.
