This thesis performed transcriptome and DNA methylation analyses to understand the mechanisms underlying stem cell regulation and two diseases, Alzheimer's disease and asthma, as well as proposed two methods for analyzing bisulfite sequencing data. We found biomarkers in the two diseases and karyotypically abnormal stem cells as well as found an important difference between mouse and human embryonic stem cells. We also show that the tools we developed improve accuracy in differential methylation inference.
