Seniorđ
Top SchoolHuairen Zhang is an Assistant Professor and agricultural scientist with 10 years of experience applying genomics, quantitative genetics, and bioinformatics to crop improvement, particularly in maize, soybean, and foxtail millet. Based at the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology in Beijing, he combines hands-on germplasm development and map-based cloning with development of high-throughput analysis pipelines (ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq, BS-seq) that accelerate lab research and student projects. His work spans molecular biology, population genetics, and phenomics to dissect complex traits and translate genetic insights into breeding resources. Notably, he has led construction and maintenance of a foxtail millet germplasm collection and mutation resources while advancing maize root architecture studies through integrative transcriptome and quantitative genetic analyses.
