Jing Wang

Jing Wang is a Research Assistant Professor at the Department of Biostatistics, Vanderbilt University, with a focus on integrating bioinformatics and biostatistical methods to study cancer genomics, RNA biology, and chromatin dynamics.

• Education: PhD in Bioinformatics from Shanghai Jiao Tong University

Research interests center on:

• Transcriptional regulation in oncogenic pathways
• Non-coding RNA interactions in cancer metastasis
• Epigenetic mechanisms in tumor development
• Computational modeling of gene expression programs
• RNA sequencing data analysis
• Chromatin remodeling in SMARCB1-deficient cancers

Recent work emphasizes:

• WDR5 inhibition strategies for hematologic malignancies
• MYC-driven gene regulatory networks
• Super-enhancer dynamics in rhabdoid tumors
• miRNA and lncRNA roles in colorectal cancer progression
• Adapter detection tools for small RNA sequencing
• Evolution of transcriptional programs under epigenetic regulation
