	<h1 class="title">The Marschall Lab</h1>
	<h4>
		Our research group, headed by Prof. Dr. Tobias Marschall, mainly works on genome data science, 
		with a focus on novel algorithms and software tools for computational genomics. 
		We address computational challenges arising from latest sequencing technologies to further our understanding 
		of genomic variation and their consequences on phenotypic variation and disease. 
		Over the past years, a special emphasis has been on methods for haplotype reconstruction, 
		genome assembly, structural variation analysis, pangenomics and single-cell genomics.
