Caption: Sheng Zhong, of the Institute for Genomic Biology and Department of Bioengineering at the University of Illinois. Zhong and his lab study causal relationships between gene regulation and cellular behaviors, by developing computational and experimental methods on network modeling, stem cell engineering, epigenomic and single-cell analyses. Recently he has contributed to introducing "comparative epigenomics" -- using cross-species epigenomic comparison to annotate the genomes.
