Research Interest & Projects
Dr. Kardia's main research interests are in the genetic epidemiology of cardiovascular disease and its risk factors. She is particularly interested in gene-environment and gene-gene interactions and in developing novel analytical strategies to understand the complex relationship between genetic variation, environmental variation, and risk of common chronic diseases. Dr. Kardia serves with Dr. Toby Citrin as the co-director of both the Life Sciences and Society Program and the Michigan Center for Genomics & Public Health. Dr. Kardia also is the director of the Public Health Genetics Program in the School of Public Health.
