I am a PhD student, majoring in Neurology, in the Department of neurology at Peking University First Hospital. My PhD advisor, Prof. Yun Yuan, is a neurologist specialized in neuromuscular disorders. Under his guidance, my PhD research has focused on clinical, genetic, and pathological aspects of dystrophinopathies. Currently, I am a visiting PhD student in the Center for Statistical Genetics, Department of Neurology at Columbia University. I now perform research in the field of Bioinformatics, under the supervision of Prof. Suzanne M. Leal, in identifying pathogenic variants for inherited myopathies.
