Senior🎓
Top SchoolYuanhang Liu is a Principal Bioinformatician and Assistant Professor of Biomedical Informatics at Mayo Clinic with 11+ years of experience applying statistical modeling, machine learning, and computational algorithms to genomics, epigenetics, and cancer biology. He has deep hands-on expertise in NGS workflows and data integration across DNA methylation, copy-number/structural variation, ChIP-seq, RNA-seq (including scRNA-seq, CITE-seq) and spatial transcriptomics. Comfortable across R, Python and Matlab, he builds interactive visualizations and web tools (RShiny) and designs reproducible pipelines for HPC and cloud environments. His work blends Bayesian and classical inference with practical software engineering—mentoring junior bioinformaticians while translating complex omics datasets into clinically relevant insights. Based in Rochester, MN, he bridges academic research and applied healthcare analytics, often tackling real-world pharmacogenomics and translational questions that require both algorithmic rigor and biological intuition.
