Ning Zhang serves as an External Researcher in the Department of Economics at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, with research spanning interdisciplinary domains including Molecular Biology, Genetics, and Economics.
Research interests focus on epigenetic mechanisms, particularly DNA modifications in model organisms like Drosophila, alongside economic applications. The biological work investigates N6-methyladenine dynamics in gene regulation and development, while the economic dimension aligns with the department's framework though specific applications remain undefined in available materials.
Publications demonstrate significant impact in biological sciences, with the 2015 Cell article on Drosophila DNA modification accumulating 528 Scopus citations, coverage across 8 news outlets, 20 X posts, 5 patent references, and 7 Wikipedia citations. This output reflects convergence between molecular biology and potential socioeconomic modeling despite the Economics department affiliation.
Professional activities include high-visibility academic dissemination with 637 Mendeley readers and 2 CiteULike bookmarks, indicating substantial scholarly engagement in epigenetic research.
