Francisco

Hao Li is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics at UC San Francisco, and a Chang Jiang Lecture Professor at Peking University. He is also a member of the California Institute for Quantitative Biomedical Research. He was a David and Lucile Packard Fellow from 2001 to 2006 and an Overseas Distinguished Chinese Scholar from 2002 to 2005. He received his BS in Physics from Peking University and Ph. D. in Theoretical Physics from MIT. The research in the Li lab focuses on transcriptional regulatory networks and comparative genomics, where a combined theoretical and experimental approach is used to reconstruct the cellular transcription networks, to study the evolution of transcriptional circuits, and to analyze the dynamics of gene expression quantitatively at a pathway level in single cells.
