Abstract:
The widely collected and analyzed genetic data help in understanding the underlying mechanisms of heterogeneous diseases. Cellular components interact in a network fashion where genes are nodes and edges are the interactions. The failure in individual genes lead to dys-regulation of sub-groups of genes which causes a disease phenotype, and this dys-functional region is called a disease module. Disease module identification in complex diseases such as asthma and cancer is a huge challenge. Despite the development of numerous sophisticated methods there is a still no gold standard.

The first part of this thesis is dedicated to the study of edge effects in maps of disease.  The aim of the analyses is to find out how the estimation of the risk from a disease near boundaries can be affected by the boundary position.  The behaviour of a selection of models for disease mapping is evaluated when different edge conditions exist in the data. Disease mapping plays an important role in monitoring the health of a community.  Plotting new cases on a map is a frequently used technique for monitoring the spread of infectious diseases and from a statistical point of view it is relevant

Since the discovery of a coral disease in 1965, there has been an exponential increase in the number of known coral diseases, as the abundance, prevalence, distribution, and number of host species affected has also significantly increased. Coral diseases are recognized as contributing significantly to the dramatic losses of coral cover on a global basis, particularly in the Caribbean.

Abstract:
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) are featured by cholinergic and dopaminergic neuron loss, respectively. As a unique pathological hallmark of AD, neuritic plaques contain aggregated amyloid β protein (Aβ), generated from amyloid β precursor protein (APP). APP mutations cause familial AD; mutations in the alpha-synuclein (SNCA) and leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) genes are associated with PD. Recent studies suggest that the level of LRRK2 affects its toxicity in neurons. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms underlying LRRK2 expression would help to examine its p

The most prevalent neurodegenerative diseases are hypothesized to be due to the misfolding and accumulation of specific proteins in the brain.
