Biography

Shaun SE Loong is a current final year medical student at the National University of Singapore Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine. He is currently a UROP student at the Cardiovascular Research Institute (FOOLAB) under the mentorship of Prof. Roger Foo. His key research interests are in the analysis of rare inherited cardiovascular conditions and complex trait diseases through the utilization of high throughput next-generation genetic sequencing. As part of his work in rare inherited cardiovascular diseases, he has familiarised himself with American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG) guidelines for the curation of genetic variants. In addition to that, he has applied this to analyzing various cohorts of inherited cardiac and endocrine conditions, elucidating the causal pathogenic variants. In addition to regularly curating rare disease variants, he is involved in the analysis of complex, polygenetic conditions through GWASs.
