Associate Professor Sang Hong Lee (Hong Lee) is the leader of the statistical genetics group at the Australian Centre for Precision Health and UniSA Allied Health & Human Performance at University of South Australia. He graduated from Dong-A University in S. Korea (Bachelor in 1998) and University of New England (Master and PhD in 2006). Dr Lee has extensive experience in developing advanced statistical methods to estimate genetic variance and individual genetic effects based on phenotype-genotype association analyses. Currently, Dr Lee is focusing on understanding the genetic architecture of complex traits by tackling G x E interaction using advanced statistical models. His developed models and methods have been also widely used across multidisciplinary fields including human genetics, animal and plant breeding, evolutionary genetics and social and behavior science. The total number of his publications is 104 that have ~24,000 citations to date and h-index 54.
He is also keen to contribute to teaching and learning by introducing novel concept, theory, statistical tools and genetic models for analysing epidemiology data. In teaching, he is particularly interested in including paradigm-shifting concepts and tools that have been recently proposed to dissect the genetic architecture of complex traits and diseases, which help students explore wider research area and carry out a higher degree research course. His teaching materials focus on 1) up-to-date knowledge in teaching, 2) students’ feedback that I will act on, 3) monitoring how my teaching influences student learning and 4) making an impact on student learning.

I have contributed to the dissection of the (shared) genetic architecture of complex traits and diseases using advanced statistical models and methods in computational biology based on genomic information, aiming for personalised genomic medicine. One of key elements in my research is to link two individuals who are not related in the conventional sense but who can be compared experimentally because they share part of their genome by descent over many generations. Genomic data create links between individuals in the population so that traditional experimental design is not essential anymore, which is a paradigm-shifting concept.

Another key element in my research is the development of advanced algorithms that are most suitable for utilising genomic information, and of which computational efficiency is hundreds of times higher compared to the current methods. This paradigm-shifting tool has led works have a significant impact on the filed. My five most significant papers (4 first- and 1 second-authored) have been published in Nature Genetics (2012; 2013), American Journal of Human Genetics (2011; 2011) and Bioinformatics (2013). The number of citations for these five publications is ~ 4400 to date (Google Scholar). The number of citations for all publications for the last 5 years (since 2013) is ~ 11500, and includes citation in Nature, Science, Nature Neuroscience, Molecular Psychiatry, JAMA Psychiatry, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences and many others. I have 42 publications that have more than 42 citations (h-index = 42).
