Introduction of the Zhang Laboratory

We are part of Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics, Columbia Initiative in Systems Biology, Motor Neuron Center, and Columbia Stem Cell Initiative at Columbia University Medical Center.

The vision of my lab is to infer RNA regulatory networks in the nervous system, as a way to understand the mammlian complexity manifested in evolutionary-developmental (evo-devo) processes and in several neuronal disorders. My lab will have a mixed dry and wet lab setup (a.k.a. "humid" lab). We use different model systems and a combination of high-throughput data driven and hypothesis driven approaches.

We have positions for wet and dry lab postdocs and a lab technician for very motivated individuals with relavant background and training. More details will follow soon.
