PI: Dan Schrider
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Genetics at UNC-Chapel Hill. I recently completed a postdoc with Andrew Kern at Rutgers University, where we worked on detecting the footprints of natural selection in the genome. Prior to that I did my PhD with Dr. Matthew Hahn at Indiana University, studying genomic copy number variation. I also received my undergraduate training in Computer Science at Indiana University.

Postdocs
Anton Suvorov
Anton is working on applying machine learning techniques to problems in phylogenetics and population genetics. Anton joined the lab in 2018 after completing his PhD with Seth Bybee at Brigham Young University. Prior to that he worked with Christian Schlötterer and Andreas Futschik at the University of Vienna after receiving his undergraduate and master's training at Moscow State University.

Becca Love
Becca is analyzing introgression in vector species in the mosquito genera Aedes and Anopheles. She joined the lab in Dec. 2020 after a postdoc at the University of Notre Dame developing methods for in silico genotyping of polymorphic chromosomal inversions. Becca also completed her PhD at Notre Dame, studying vector genomics in the lab of Nora Besansky. She received her undergraduate degree from Johns Hopkins University, where she studied Molecular and Cellular Biology as well as English.

Students
Logan Whitehouse
Logan is a BBSP grad student who joined the Schrider Lab in 2020. He is working on applying machine learning techniques to problems in population genomics. Logan completed his Bachelor's in Biology and Master's in Bioinformatics at IUPUI, where he worked on neuronal GPCR signaling and electrophysiology data analysis in mouse models of genetics-driven obesity.
Amjad Dabi
Amjad is a BBSP grad student who joined the lab in 2021. He is doing some stuff.
Other Members
Dylan Ray
Dylan joined the lab as a programmer in the summer of 2019. He is a man of mystery.
Louie Schrider (Dog)
The Schrider Lab is still looking to grow. In the mean time we are filling out the website with a picture of my dog. We could count him as a real member—while he doesn't really do anything that directly helps our research, he does boost morale—but we are looking for real human members, so please contact me if interested!
