معرفی
Pengyi Yang is an Associate Professor and University of Sydney Robinson Fellow at the School of Mathematics & Statistics, University of Sydney. He leads the Computational Systems Biology group at the Charles Perkins Centre and holds a conjoint appointment as Unit Head of Computational Systems Biology at the Children's Medical Research Institute (CMRI). His research focuses on computational approaches to understand trans-regulatory networks in stem cells and their applications in regenerative medicine. Yang holds a Ph.D. and has been recognized with awards such as the National Stem Cell Foundation Metcalf Prize (2021).
His research spans computational systems biology, machine learning for bioinformatics, and spatial/single-cell omics analysis. Key projects include modeling pluripotency transitions, developing stem cell-derived organoids, and creating computational tools for phosphoproteomics and multi-omics integration. Collaborations include international initiatives like the Laboratory of Data Discovery for Health (InnoHK).
Yang advises multiple PhD students and leads grants on topics like stem cell-derived brain organoids and embryonic development modeling. His lab develops tools like Cepo, PhosR, and CiteFuse for omics data analysis. He teaches data science and molecular systems biology at the University of Sydney.
