His research is in quantitative genomics, epigenetics, and evolutionary biology and has focused on developing new experimental and computational methods to study the evolution of gene expression in defining complex traits.[3]
Fraser completed his Ph.D. in Molecular and Cell Biology from the University of California, Berkeley in 2005.[4] His dissertation advisor was Mike Eisen.
On June 7 2023, Fraser was reported missing while backpacking in Olympic National Park. The search was called off upon learning that Fraser had 'self-rescued' and walked out of the park via the Dosewallips River Trail on June 10 2023.[5]
