Zuo-fei Yuan is a lead bioinformatics research scientist at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital with eight years of focused experience in computational proteomics and protein/histone profiling. With a Ph.D. in computer science from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Zuo-fei blends rigorous algorithm development—such as methods for accurate monoisotopic peak detection—with large-scale spectral data analysis developed during postdoctoral work at UPenn. He has a strong software engineering foundation from earlier roles at the Institute of Zoology and has organized and participated in domain workshops, reflecting both technical depth and community engagement. Based in Memphis, he applies scalable computational methods to complex proteomics problems, often bridging raw mass-spec data processing and biological insight. Notably, his background combines high-resolution signal-processing expertise with practical bioinformatics tool development, enabling reproducible protein profiling at scale.
