About

I am interested in molecular genetics, tackling tricky genetic targets and navigating complex genomic regions. My main focus is on understanding the genetics of the Lipoprotein(a) trait and the role of genetic variation in the LPA KIV-2 copy number region. Additionally, I enjoy exploring the potential of nanopore sequencing and other emerging genetic technologies to tackle tough questions in genetics and across discplines. Visit the research page here.

MolMed Lab side teaching, project studies and theses (Bachelor, Master) available. If you are interested contact me at stefan.coassin@i-med.ac.at. Available topics may involve genetic analysis of complex gene regions, applications of Nanopore sequencing and related bioinformatics, or functional characterization of SNPs.
