Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolHuiguang Yi is a bioinformatics postdoc at the Perelman School of Medicine with eight years of hands-on experience in computational biology, specializing in comparative genomics, epigenomics, and regulatory annotation of the non-coding genome. He combines deep statistical learning and next-generation sequencing expertise (RNA-seq, eQTL) with strong programming skills in Linux/Perl, C, and R to link evolutionary signatures and chromatin states to gene regulation and disease-associated variants. His work focuses on kidney biology, using cross-species analyses to reveal conserved regulatory circuitry and reinterpret uncharacterized variants in chronic kidney disease. Trained with a PhD from Fudan and earlier degrees in microbiology/genetics and clinical medicine, he brings both wet-lab context and computational rigor to mechanistic genomics. An intellectually curious scientist, he treats bioinformatics as a true scientific discipline rather than merely a toolkit and actively builds a research program that trains new students in the lab.
