Shushu Huang is an Associate Research Scientist in the Department of Genetics at Yale School of Medicine. They hold a PhD from Nanjing Medical University (2023) and an MD from the same institution (2013). Their research focuses on genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying metabolic disorders, muscular dystrophies, and cardiovascular diseases. Key areas include CRISPR-based therapeutic discovery, high-throughput functional genomics, and gene therapy safety. Huang has collaborated with researchers like Monkol Lek and Carlos Fernandez-Hernando on projects involving LXR signaling, DUX4 toxicity, and MC4R variant analysis.
Publications span studies on vascular biology, gene therapy outcomes, and obesity genetics. Notable work includes investigating hypercholesterolemia’s role in vascular remodeling and analyzing MC4R variants in morbid obesity. Their lab is located in the Anlyan Center, New Haven.
