Laboratory Genetics and Genomics

Dr. Han is an ABMGG certified clinical laboratory director in the clinical sequencing lab of the New York Genome Center. Dr. Han specializes in analyzing whole genome sequence data to identify pathogenic variants in individuals suspected of having rare genetic disorders. His research career has focused on elucidating the molecular mechanisms of pathogenic variants associated with monogenic disorders with the goal of returning more accurate results to patients and their families. Dr. Han has continued this work in a clinical setting by applying genome and transcriptome sequencing to increase the diagnostic yield for patients with rare genetic conditions and to understand how new genomics technologies can be brought into molecular diagnostics.
