Weihua Zhang is a Researcher in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the School of Public Health, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, where they have been based since joining the institution in 2007. Located at the Medical School, St Mary's Campus, United Kingdom, Zhang specializes in genetic data analysis to identify disease-associated genes, particularly for cardiovascular conditions and common phenotypes.
Education:
- Bachelor of Science, School of Public Health, Xi'an Medical University, 1990
- Master's in Cancer Epidemiology, China
- PhD in Genetic Epidemiology, China
Zhang's research centers on uncovering disease etiologies to advance prevention strategies, with over a decade of expertise in statistical genetics methodology development. Current work investigates genetic variants linked to human diseases and phenotypes, driving insights in cardiovascular health and broader clinical domains. Key research areas include:
- Genetics
- Public Health and Health Services
- Clinical Sciences
- Cardiorespiratory Medicine and Haematology
- Paediatrics and Reproductive Medicine
- Medical Biochemistry and Metabolomics
Affiliated with the Epidemiology and Biostatistics research group, Zhang collaborates with Imperial's medical researchers to translate genetic findings into public health applications, leveraging institutional resources at St Mary's Campus.
