Senior🎓
Top SchoolZhangying Chen is a postdoctoral fellow at Mount Sinai with 11 years of research experience and a PhD/MPH from Northwestern University focused on neuroimmunology, brain aging, and neurodegenerative disease. She combines deep experimental skills—mouse and ferret TBI models, primary microglia cultures, single-cell transcriptomics and TCR profiling—with computational analysis to probe T cell–microglia interactions driving age-dependent outcomes. A fast learner and collaborative leader, she has translated bench work into translational insights during a neuroscience internship at Genentech and an independent thesis that blended in vivo models, co-culture systems, and advanced flow and imaging assays. Based in New York, she brings a multidisciplinary perspective from public health and integrative biology, plus hands-on experience in human tissue culture, that helps bridge basic mechanisms and clinical relevance. An under-the-radar strength is her cross-species experimental aptitude—applying findings from rodents to human postmortem cells—positioning her to advance therapeutic strategies for neuroinflammation and brain aging.
