演讲嘉宾简介


William J. Greenleaf Associate Professor

University of Pennsylvania





研究方向:

His Current Research Interests focuses on developing methods to probe the genome and epigenome at the single-cell and single-molecule levels. Their efforts are split between building new tools to leverage the power of high- throughput sequencing and cutting-edge microscopies, and bringing these new technologies to bear against basic biological questions of genomic and epigenomic variation.
