GEOME-LGB uses Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and spatial statistics for the analysis and management of health data and genetic resources
Our Research Subjects
Landscape and Seascape Genomics
Landscape and seascape genomics combine genomic, environmental, and spatial data to investigate how ecological and geographic factors shape genetic variation, population connectivity, and adaptation. By linking genome-wide patterns to environmental gradients across land and sea, they provide insights into the evolutionary processes driving biodiversity and resilience.
Very high resolution DEM in evolutionary biology
Very high-resolution digital elevation models (DEMs) are detailed three-dimensional representations of terrain that capture fine-scale topographic variation, enabling evolutionary biologists to quantify environmental heterogeneity and investigate its influence on ecological and evolutionary processes.
Spatial Epidemiology
Spatial epidemiology combines health, environmental, demographic, and spatial data to investigate how geographic and social factors shape the distribution of diseases and health outcomes. By linking patterns of health and disease to spatial variation, it provides insights into the processes driving disease transmission, health disparities, and population health.
