Dr. CAI Jun, Principal Investigator. Bachelor degree (Tsinghua University , 1999), PhD (Tsinghua University , 2005), Postdoctoral Research Fellow (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2006-2008). His research group combines Computational biology and Genomics to investigate biological problems related to cancer genomics and stem cell genomics. The group is currently focusing on develop and use the single cell genome sequencing technology, to draw genomic variation map of somatic cells, thus to analyze the accumulation of genetic variation between healthy cell and in the evolutionary process from normal somatic cells into tumor cell.
