Background
Caroline is Principal Investigator and co-ordinator of the QTL in Health and Disease research programme. Over the last 10 years she has been responsible for managing many aspects of the collection and analysis of quantitative trait data from isolated and general Croatian populations. More recently this project has expanded to include analyses of further Croatian and Scottish populations. Her main interests are in the genetics of quantitative traits in human populations especially those likely to be involved in clinically significant complex diseases.
