Hi, I am Chao Li. From 2021 to 2024, I completed postdoctoral research and joint PhD collaborative studies at ETH Zurich, where my research focused on identifying genetic variations related to environmental adaptation and disease in animals based on multi-omics data. Before this, I earned my doctoral degree from Northwest A&F University in 2023, where I also conducted research in related fields.

In Prof. Liu’s Lab, I will integrate single-cell data with other omics data to systematically investigate the genetic mechanisms underlying human pathology. I am eager to contribute to decoding the code of life and advancing the medical revolution with our exceptional team. In my spare time, I enjoy listening to music and fitness.
