Prof Murray Cox DSc, PhD, BSc(Hons), JP, CMInstD, FRSNZ

Professor in Computational Biology

Doctoral Mentor Supervisor
School of Natural Sciences

My research addresses fundamental questions in contemporary genomics: the study of an organism's entire complement of DNA. The ability to integrate new genetic technologies with sophisticated computational analysis remains a key bottleneck in advancing the biological sciences. My research group leverages national and international connections to address outstanding biological questions at the interface of genomics, computer science and statistics.

Research Expertise

Research Interests

I am particularly interested in modeling genome dynamics — firstly, establishing how genetic variation is distributed within and between individuals, and secondly, determining how this diversity changes over evolutionary time.

My work draws heavily on genetics with a solid foundation in biochemistry, statistics, computer science and anthropology. I design and implement novel algorithms and statistics, largely in the fields of coalescent theory, demographic inference and systems biology. These tools are currently being applied to several ongoing projects, including i) reconstructing human prehistory in the Pacific region, ii) determining how the transcriptome evolves, and iii) developing new methods of demographic inference. These projects typically utilize the latest next generation sequencing technologies.

More broadly, I am interested in the interface between biology, statistics and computer science, especially where large genetic datasets can be applied to address questions of outstanding biological importance.

Project Title: Revealing the mosaic genome structure of spatially admixed populations

The Pacific region provides a natural model system to study complex admixture. While Melanesian groups first settled the region ~45,000 years ago, individuals of Asian descent are relative newcomers, arriving less than 5,000 years ago. However, with rare exceptions, the relative proportions of Asian-Melanesian ancestry are not known. In 2010, I published the first spatial survey of genetic ancestry in the Pacific. In a unique and ongoing NZ-US-Indonesian collaboration, I screened a panel of ancestry informative markers in 1,430 individuals from 60 populations spanning mainland Asia to Melanesia. This pilot study produced the first snapshot of Asian-Melanesian ancestry across the Pacific region. In contrast with prior expectations, I discovered that Asian ancestry does not decline gradually across the entirety of Island Southeast Asia, but instead falls rapidly within a small area of eastern Indonesia.

Project Title: Research Medal 2010 - Early Career

Massey's 'Early Career' medal is awarded to the university's top young scientist in recognition of their research and scientific leadership. In 2010, this medal was awarded to Murray Cox for his research in computational biology, an emerging field at the interface of biology, computer science and statistics. Murray's research is focused on two areas - human demographic inference, which aims to reconstruct the historical movements of human populations, particularly in the Indo-Pacific region; and genome evolution, which explores how an individual's entire DNA complement changes through time. The medal was awarded on the basis of Murray's international publication record in these two areas.
