Research Interests
  1. A systematical evaluation of intertumoral heterogeneity in primary HCC from different aspects, including genomic and epigenomic aberrations, transcriptome profiles and the cellular composition of tumor microenvironment.
  2. Exploring cancer epigenome landscape and interplay between epigenomic aberrations and genomic aberrations.
  3. Investigating the roles of genomic and epigenetic drivers in tumor initiation, drug resistance and local metastasis by crispr-cas9 screen system.
