Prof. Geyu (Eric) Zhou

Prof. Geyu Zhou is an Assistant Professor and Research Area Convener of Genomics, Multiomics and AI at Purdue University. His research group develops and applies advanced computational and statistical methods to address critical questions in human genetics and healthcare. Dr. Zhou pioneered highly efficient, statistically powerful risk prediction models to evaluate human traits and complex diseases, including cancers, cardiovascular conditions, and psychiatric disorders, using diverse population biobank genetic datasets. His current work focuses on genetic risk prediction, admixture mapping, gene-environment interactions, Large Language Models (LLMs) in biobanks, and the integration of GWAS with multi-omics data layers.
