履歷概要 <只提供英文版本>
Professor Tang is also the principal investigator of the Laboratory for Genetics of Disease Susceptibility in the Li Ka Shing Institute of Health Sciences. The team investigates the genetic basis of polygenic diseases, also known as complex traits. Long term collaborations with international researchers have led to many new insights in various complex traits, such as genetics basis in Scoliosis which have inspired new treatment modalities. Recently, he has developed new analysis algorithms in bioinformatics and genetic statistics using cloud computing which enable determination of gene expression of a single cellular population from bulk data of cell mixtures. This invention is instrumental in the development of future blood biomarker tests and has been awarded the Gold Medal in the 2021 Geneva Invention Expo and a Silver Award in a patent portfolio competition in the Greater Bay Area.
