Introduction 👋

Hi there! I'm Michael Zietz. I'm a data scientist and genetics researcher, focused on developing new statistical and machine learnings methods with applications in healthcare and biomedicine. 🧬 I'm currently a Research Data Scientist at Cedars-Sinai Computational Biomedicine. Previously, I did my PhD at Columbia University DBMI and studied Physics at Penn, where I did research on heterogeneous networks in the Greene Lab. 🕸️ I'm interested in methods development, reproducible research, and accelerating the pace of scientific progress on complex diseases. 🏥

WebGWAS: Instant, free, online genome-wide association studies (GWAS)

MaxGCP: Optimal phenotyping for research in complex disease genetics (code, analysis)

COVID Blood type: Study of the relationship between ABO type and COVID-19 (analysis, paper, New York Times)

XSwap: A fast implementation of degree-preserving network randomization (code, analysis, paper)

Other tools 🔨
