Welcome to the Wilson Lab

We are a research group in the Genetics and Genome Biology program at the Hospital for Sick Children and the Department of Molecular Genetics at the University of Toronto, Canada. We are interested in genome regulation and human disease.

Who we are

We are a mixture of experimental and computational scientists who use comparative genomics to study evolution and human disease.

What we do

We apply a variety of high-throughput experimental approaches to fundamental questions in genome regulation. Through computational analyses, functional studies and collaborations with clinical scientists, we are putting our findings into the context of human gene function and disease.

Where we are

We are part of the SickKids Research Institute in Toronto Canada and the Department of Molecular Genetics at the University of Toronto. Our lab is located on the 14th floor of the Peter Gilgan Center for Research and Learning.
