معرفی
Xiaoxu Yang is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Human Genetics at the University of Utah. His research focuses on genomic mosaicism, computational biology, and variant calling to understand human diseases and development. He pioneered methods like DeepMosaic and MPAS for detecting low-fraction mutations.
- Education: B.S. from Beijing Normal University; Ph.D. from Peking University.
His work spans:
- Genomic mosaicism in embryonic development
- Mutation transmission in parental germline
- Computational methods for variant detection
- Disease mechanisms in epilepsy and autism
Recent publications highlight his leadership in applying mosaicism to study cortical development (2024 Nature) and germline mutation risks (2023 Nat Biotech). The Yang Lab develops experimental and computational pipelines for clinical and basic research.
Labs & Teams:
- Yang Lab - University of Utah
