FACULTY BIOGRAPHICAL SUMMARY: Dr. Montgomery is the Director of the OMRF Center for Biomedical Data Sciences (CBDS), and a Professor in the Genes and Human Disease Research Program at the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation (OMRF). She is also the Co-Director the OK INBRE and an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Biostatistics and Epidemiology in the College of Public Health and the School of Computer Science at the University of Oklahoma. She has been engaged in complex disease research for >20 years with a strong focus on "big data" and translational research, particularly genetics and genomics. As an early-stage investigator at Case Western Reserve she worked on the development, refinement, and application of methodology for statistical analysis of genetic data with a special emphasis on modeling methods for highly correlated data and the implementation of these methods into the SAGE software suite as the Assistant Director of the NIH sponsored Human Genetic Analysis Resource. Since then, she has directed Bioinformatics and Data Analysis Cores for both a Center of Biomedical Research Excellence (COBRE), a Center for Research Translation, and the OMRF Quantitative Analysis Core for over 10 years. She also leads her own laboratory focused on the immunogenetics of sarcoidosis, particularly in African American patients and, as such, serves as Director of the OMRF Sarcoidosis Research Unit (SRU). Her collaborative work centers on the application of the data sciences to clinical and biological data.
