Overview

Visscher joined the University of Queensland in 2011, where he is Professor of Quantitative Genetics. He is a Laureate Fellow of the Australian Research Council. Visscher was elected a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science in 2010, a Fellow of the Royal Society (London) in 2018 and a Foreign Member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2018.

Visscher’s research is about genetic variation for complex traits (including quantitative traits and disease) in populations, with the broad aim to understand and quantify the causes and consequences of human trait variation.

Prof Peter Visscher, Prof Naomi Wray and Prof Jian Yang together comprise the Executive Team of the Program in Complex Trait Genomics (PCTG). PCTG comprises a critical mass of more than 30 post-doctoral researchers plus research assistants and students, all supported by external grant funding. Their skills lie in the ability to develop and apply statistical methods within the framework of quantitative, population and statistical genetics and to use theory to understand and predict results from data analyses. They play leading roles in the international research consortia. The focus of current research activities is in the detection and fine-mapping of loci underlying complex traits (including common disease), based upon theoretical studies and applications of methods to large datasets, in population genetics studies using theoretical approaches and high-density genetic marker data, and in systems genomics studies.

Research Impacts

Visscher's research focuses on understanding individual differences betweeen people in traits that are important for health outcomes and ageing. A better understanding of the genes that underlie variation in risk to diseases may lead to better treatments.

Available Projects

  • We have several PhD projects are available in our research group. The projects are about quantitative genetic methods and application to large datasets to answer fundamental questions about the genetic basis of quantitative traits and disease in human populations. There are many traits that we study, including gene expression, gene methylation, height and body-mass-index, psychiatric disease and neurogenetic conditions.

    Specific Project: Maximising genomic predictions in biobank-style data

    Contact: Kathryn Kemper, k.kemper@imb.uq.edu.au

    Complex traits in humans, such as height and body mass index, are influenced by environmental and genetic factors. Genetic factors affecting a trait can be further subdivided into genetic factors shared between or within families, and population-level genetic information. To date, genomic analyses have primarily focused on population-level genetic information. The aim of this project is to utilise and combine all possible sources of information to increase the accuracy of genomic predictions for complex traits in biobank-style data. The applicant will work on large datasets such as the UK Biobank which, in the near future, will have whole genome sequence information on approximately 500K individuals and extensive phenotypes.

  • We have several PhD projects are available in our research group. The projects are about quantitative genetic methods and application to large datasets to answer fundamental questions about the genetic basis of quantitative traits and disease in human populations. There are many traits that we study, including gene expression, gene methylation, height and body-mass-index, psychiatric disease and neurogenetic conditions.

    Specific Project: Maximising genomic predictions in biobank-style data

    Contact: Kathryn Kemper, k.kemper@imb.uq.edu.au

    Complex traits in humans, such as height and body mass index, are influenced by environmental and genetic factors. Genetic factors affecting a trait can be further subdivided into genetic factors shared between or within families, and population-level genetic information. To date, genomic analyses have primarily focused on population-level genetic information. The aim of this project is to utilise and combine all possible sources of information to increase the accuracy of genomic predictions for complex traits in biobank-style data. The applicant will work on large datasets such as the UK Biobank which, in the near future, will have whole genome sequence information on approximately 500K individuals and extensive phenotypes.
