Polygenic adaptation, in which small changes in allele frequencies co-occur at multiple variants, has been proposed to be a major adaptive mechanism for polygenic traits. Because 90% of genetic variants associated to polygenic traits are located in non-coding, regulatory regions, I am interested in studying the extent to which polygenic selection targets regulatory regions of the human genome. I propose to combine network biology and population genetics methods in order to develop a new approach to detect signatures of polygenic adaptation in regulatory regions.
