While several studies in the intervening years have investigated whether particular genes were responsible for modifying HD onset, this is the first to employ
genome - wide association (GWA)
analysis, which
scans an individual's whole
genome to identify chromosomal regions containing variants that are associated with the disease traits that are being studied.
Falling well short of full
genome analyses, these services
scan an individual's DNA for single nucleotide polymorphisms — point mutations — that are linked to traits and diseases.

During his PhD he worked on three main projects: digital
scanned laser light sheet fluorescence microscopy (with Dr. Ernst Stelzer), the in toto reconstruction of zebrafish embryogenesis (with Dr. Jochen Wittbrodt), and the computational
analysis of the evolution of the yeast
genome architecture (with Dr. Michael Knop).
The genes were identified through population - and
genome - wide linkage
scans and association
analyses of at - risk haplotypes utilizing genetic and clinical data from the 17,000 participants in deCODE's obesity program in Iceland.
