Single Cell Analysis of Tumor Infiltrating Immune Cells in Liver Cancer and Beyond

About this Class

Presenter: Dr. Zemin Zhang is a Professor at Peking University and a Principal Investigator at Biomedical Pioneering Innovation Center (BIOPIC). He obtained his BS from Nankai University and PhD from Penn State University. He conducted postdoctoral training at UCSF and spent ~17 years at Genentech/Roche prior to joining Peking University. His lab focuses on understanding the detailed characteristics of the tumor microenvironment, particularly the interplay between immune and cancer cells using single cell sequencing technologies, with the goal of identifying rare cell subtypes that are causally related to cancer. His lab is also pursuing the development of novel bioinformatics tools for single cell data integration and analysis. He is a CUSBEA Scholar as well as Cheung Kong Scholar.
