Nicholas J. Schork is Distinguished Professor and Co-Director of the Division of
Clinical Genomics and Therapeutics at The Translational Genomics Research
Institute (TGen) in Phoenix, AZ. Dr. Schork is also Adjunct Professor of Population
Sciences as well as Molecular and Cellular Biology at City of Hope, Adjunct
Professor of Psychiatry and Biostatistics at the University of California, San Diego
and Adjunct Professor of Integrative Structural and Computational Biology at Scripps
Research.

Prior to his current positions, Dr. Schork was Professor and Director of Human Biology
at the J. Craig Venter Institute and previously Professor, Molecular and Experimental
Medicine, at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) and Director of Bioinformatics and
Biostatistics for the Scripps Translational Science Institute (STSI). Dr. Schork has also
held faculty appointments at Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) and Harvard
University. Between 1999 and 2000 Dr. Schork took a leave of absence from CWRU to
conduct research as Vice President of Statistical Genomics at the French
Biotechnology company, Genset, where he helped guide efforts to construct the first
high-density map of genetic variation in the human genome.

Dr. Schork has published over 600 articles in many areas of biomedical and translation
science, including articles detailing novel methodologies and applications leveraging
integrated approaches to disease diagnosis, treatment, and prevention, as well as
clinical trials design. He also has a long history of collaborative and consortium-
related research in which he has contributed analysis methodology and applied data
analysis expertise. For example, Dr. Schork is the Principal Investigator for the NIA-
funded Longevity Consortium, whose goals are to identify and characterize factors
that contribute to human longevity. Dr. Schork has 12 patents associated with
genetic analysis methodology, been involved with more than 10 start-up companies,
and has mentored over 75 students and post-doctoral fellows.
