Research
I am Associate Professor at Beijing Institute of Mathematical Sciences and Applications
(BIMSA). I joined BIMSA in the summer of 2025. My Research area is statistical genetics, where I develop statistical and computational methods, mainly from Bayesian perspective, with targeted applications in genomic studies and genetic diagnosis.
Currently I am working on studying haplotype variation using deep learning models. I am also interested in studying genetic determinants of autism, and early cancer screening. If you are interesting in working with me, I have
two postodc positions available.
My academic career was adversely affected by the China Initiative. Here are several reports on China Initiative and NIH-led investigations:
A report in which I am a second feature on fifth paragraph; A report on Franklin Tao by Gideon Lewis-Kraus; A Science article by Jeffray Mervis.
Amongst all the choas around the world, I feel lucky to be able to move back to China to enjoy the safety and prosperity, and to focus on scientific investigations without unwarranted interuption.
