Bio

Jennelle C. Hodge, Ph.D., board certified in ABMGG Clinical Cytogenetics and Molecular Genetics and Genomics, is a director in the Cytogenetics, Molecular Genetics and Pharmacogenomics laboratories and a Professor in the Department of Medical and Molecular Genetics at Indiana University.

Her translational research focuses on cancer genetics and mining of genomic data for genotype and phenotype correlation.

Dr. Hodge is currently a Standing Editor for the WHO Classification of Tumours (WCT) and the Chair of the Genetics and Genomics Subcommittee. She is also the Editor-in-Chief for the Compendium of Cancer Genome Aberrations (CCGA.io); this wiki-style resource aims to provide up-to-date information on the genetic correlates to the WCT-based diseases for laboratory cancer case interpretation.

Additionally, Dr. Hodge has had leadership roles in clinical genetics-focused organizations (American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics, Association for Molecular Pathology, and Cancer Genomics Consortium), and contributed to diverse academic endeavors including high-impact publications in journals such as Cell and Nature Genetics. Her goals are to support the next generation of clinical scientists and produce resources for the genetics community.
