Approaching Complex Brain Disorders  through Mapping High-Resolution  Protein-Protein Interaction Network

 

Speaker: Dr. Xinping Yang

Center for Cancer Systems Biology,

Dana Farber Cancer Institute,

Department of Genetics,

Harvard Medical School

 

Dr. Xinping Yang is now a postdoctoral research fellow based in

Harvard Medical School . Dr. Yang is interested in understanding

the molecular mechanism underlying complex traits with

dysregulated brain functions through mapping local, highresolution,

disease-centered protein-protein interaction networks.

His research accomplishments on genetic diseases include

linkage analysis and positional cloning of a disease

causal gene, identification of misregulated pathways involved

in disease development, genome-scale cloning of open reading

frames (ORFs) and protein-protein interaction network

mapping, development of high-throughput platform for studying

high-resolution protein-protein interaction networks and the

application of this platform to the study of autism and schizophrenia.
