Gail Jarvik

Gail Jarvik is an American geneticist currently the Arno G. Motulsky Endowed Chair at University of Washington[1] and an Elected Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.[2]

Education

She earned her Ph.D at University of Michigan in 1986 and her M.D. at University of Iowa the following year.[3]

Research

Her research involves cancer genetics and adult genetics such inherited immune disorders, stroke, cancer, heart disease and etiology.[1] Her highest cited paper is Common variants at MS4A4/MS4A6E, CD2AP, CD33 and EPHA1 are associated with late-onset Alzheimer's disease[4] at 1080 times, according to Google Scholar.[5]
