Jin Billy Li
Associate Professor of Genetics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe Li Lab is primarily interested in RNA editing mediated by ADAR enzymes. We co-discovered that the major function of RNA editing is to label endogenous dsRNAs as "self" to avoid being recognized as "non-self" by MDA5, a host innate immune dsRNA sensor, leading us to pursue therapeutic applications in cancer, autoimmune diseases, and viral infection. The other major direction of the lab is to develop technologies to harness endogenous ADAR enzymes for site-specific transcriptome engineering.

Wen-yang Lin
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe broad goal of my research interest is to identify intrinsic and extrinsic mediators of tumor growth and plasticity. My past research experiences will synergize with the expertise of Dr. Monte Winslow’s laboratory to allow the discovery of novel mechanisms of cancer progression. The integration of our molecular measurements with multiple types of ‘omics’ data will ultimately improve the diagnostic precision medicine.

Xiangping Lin
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
BioXiangping Lin, Ph.D., is a Postdoctoral Scholar at Stanford University. He received his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the Sorbonne Paris North University, Paris. Dr. Lin’s research focuses on Analytical Chemistry, especially Mass Spectrometry (Orbitrap, Q-TOF, QqQ) and NMR-based omics studies. These include, but are not limited to, metabolomics, exposomics, and the application in biomedical and environmental research, such as cancer, liver disease, chemicals exposure biomarkers, metabolism and aging. In addition, he has extensive experience in multivariate statistics (PCA, PLS-DA, et cetera.), variable selection (logistic regression, LASSO regression, et cetera.), and R programming. In his free time, he enjoys going to the gym, playing badminton (he organizes the Stanford postdoc badminton club), swimming, fitness, cuisine, traveling, and spending time with family and friends.
