Matthew is a statistical geneticist with a focus on cerebrovascular disease. After completing his PhD working on the WTCCC2 Stroke Genetics study, he undertook post-doctoral research at King’s College London and University of Cambridge before joining Queen Mary University of London as a lecturer in 2019.
Dr Traylor’s research is focused on understanding the causes of cerebrovascular disease and their impact of dementia, using genetics. Through genome-wide association meta-analyses his work has identified dozens of genetic loci associated with stroke and cerebral small vessel disease.
