Welcome to the Genomics and Molecular Epidemiology Research (GaMER) lab in the Department of Pathobiology and Veterinary Science of University of Connecticut.
We use an interdisciplinary combination of high-throughput genome sequencing, computational biology, phylogenetic analysis, and traditional molecular biology and virology. We hope that, through our research, we can better understand the genetic diversity and evolutionary dynamics of rapidly mutating viruses in animals.

Kenneth Abraham of the University of Virginia School of Law and Daniel Schwarcz of University of Minnesota Law School deliver a presentation in the 2022 New Ideas in Insurance speaker series, which is organized by the Insurance Law Center at the UConn School of Law. They will discuss how insurance law scholars have long believed that insurance does more than just transfer risk: it plays a key role in regulating the conduct of policyholders by creating incentives for risk management and in some cases requiring or forbidding certain behavior.
