Principal Investigator

Dr. Xin He (贺信) joined University of Chicago as an Assistant Professor in 2014. Xin started his career as an experimental biologist: he obtained his B.S. in Biochemistry at University of Science and Technology at China, followed by two years’ graduate training at Northwestern University. Xin moved to the area of computational biology afterwards, and earned his Ph.D. in Computer Science from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2009, under the supervision of Dr. Saurabh Sinha. Before his current position, Xin completed postdoc training with Dr. Hao Li at UCSF, and with Drs. Kathryn Roeder and Ziv Bar-Joseph at Carnegie Mellon University.
