The Bulmanare lab conducts high throughput genotyping as a first step towards identifying genes cause and understanding the pathophysiology of genetic disorders.

Dr. Dennis E. Bulman’s current research work involves finding the genes for Parkinson's disease, migraine, ataxia, various forms of epilepsy, Bi-cuspid Aortic Valve, Brachydactyly A-1 and myoclonus dystonia within large families which are affected by these disorders.

Dr. Bulman received his B.Sc. in Genetics and an M.Sc. in Microbiology and Immunology from the University of Western Ontario. He completed a Ph.D. in Molecular and Medical Genetics at the University of Toronto.

Dr. Bulman is a Senior Research Scientist at the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute, and an Associate Professor in the Division of Neurology, Department of Medicine at the University of Ottawa. He is a Network Scholar of the Canadian Genetic Disease Network, and a Canadian Foundation for Innovation Researcher.
