Xin Yang, PhD

Staff Research Scientist II

I am a research scientist dedicated to unraveling the complexities of diseases like cancer and HIV. My academic path began with a Ph.D. from the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences / Peking Union Medical College and postdoctoral training at Stanford University, where I focused on cancer / stem cell research. Using gene editing and stem cell models, I explored disease mechanisms to identify potential therapeutic targets. Now, my work spans both cancer and infectious diseases, to develop innovative findings and treatments.

Outside the lab, I find joy and inspiration in the arts and spending time with my family, those refresh and fuel my creativity.
