Claire Wade

Professor Claire Wade is a member of the Department of BIO at The University of Sydney. Her research interests include gene mapping, veterinary anatomy and physiology, genetics, veterinary medicine, developmental genetics, genomics, veterinary sciences, genome structure and regulation, veterinary diagnosis and diagnostics, and veterinary epidemiology. She holds a BSc (Hons) and PhD from UNSW, as well as a GCertEd from UQ. Her profile page highlights her work in discovery-based research.

Claire M. Wade is a Professor of Computational Biology and Animal Genetics at the University of Sydney, specializing in genetics and genomics. Her research focuses on understanding the genetic basis of complex traits in animals, including diseases and phenotypic variations. She has contributed significantly to genome sequencing projects, such as the mouse, dog, horse, and fungal plant pathogen genomes. Her work explores population genetics, association mapping, and the role of genetic variation in disease susceptibility and trait evolution. Wade's research integrates computational biology with experimental genetics to uncover the molecular mechanisms underlying genetic disorders and evolutionary innovations.
