RESEARCH EXPERIENCES

Graduate Student, Tongji University (2018-2024)

  • Developed and applied computational methods to analyze single-cell and spatial data
    • Developed SCRIP (Single-Cell Gene Regulation Inference using ChIP-seq), a method integrating scATAC-seq and bulk TR ChIP-seq to infer single-cell TR activity and targets. SCRIP outperformed motif-based approaches in TR binding activity assessment and enabled identification of TR target genes and construction of single-cell gene regulation networks. With the advances of single-cell multiomics techniques, we updated it to SCRIPro, which suits both single-cell and spatial multiomics data.
    • Developed TISCH (Tumor Immune Single Cell Hub) and TISCH2, a curated resource integrating single-cell transcriptome profiles from ~6 million cells across 50 cancer types, enabling systematic comparison of gene expression and immune system heterogeneity to inform immunotherapy research.
  • Large-scale genomic data mining and integration analysis
    • Developed CHIPS, a pipeline that processes epigenome data into readable results with a single command. CHIPS integrates state-of-the-art tools for cistrome NGS data and automates parameter selection.
    • Developed and maintained the Cistrome Data Browser, which hosts many public cistrome sequence datasets, offering a user-friendly interface to access the data quality and the results of downstream analysis.
