Xiaokang Wu
Postdoctoral Scholar, Cardiovascular Institute
BioAs a driven and inquisitive physician-scientist with a diverse background, Dr. Wu's research is centered on cardiovascular disease modeling (utilizing rodents and stem cells), molecular pathology, clinical genomics, and the development of novel therapeutics for cardiovascular diseases. I bring extensive experience in wet-lab experimentation, encompassing fundamental biomolecular techniques, cell culture, animal handling, cell and gene therapies, as well as large-scale next-generation sequencing (NGS) library preparation. Her multicultural exposure, coupled with advanced scientific training, equips me with a distinctive capacity for swift adaptation to new environments and tackling a wide range of projects. Currently, Dr. Wu spearheads research on transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR), a rare and devastating protein misfolding disease. Utilizing iPSC, animal models, and human samples, her pioneering work promises significant insights into this life-threatening condition, aiming to enhance patient outcomes.

Yue Wu
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI built computational methods to integrate and model biological time series, including metabolic dynamics, longitudinal multi-omics data, and micro-sampling. I reduce dimensions, built clusters, and search for causal links.

Courtney Wusthoff, MD
Professor of Neurology and, by courtesy, of Pediatrics (Neonatology)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy projects focus on clinical research in newborns with, or at risk, for brain injury. I use EEG in at-risk neonates to better understand the underlying pathophysiology of risk factors that may lead to worse outcomes. I am particularly interested in neonatal seizures and how they may exacerbate perinatal brain injury with a goal to identify treatments that might protect the vulnerable brain. I am also interested in EEG in other pediatric populations, as well as medical ethics and global health.

Joanna Wysocka
Lorry Lokey Professor and Professor of Developmental Biology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe precise and robust regulation of gene expression is a cornerstone for complex biological life. Research in our laboratory is focused on understanding how regulatory information encoded by the genome is integrated with the transcriptional machinery and chromatin context to allow for emergence of form and function during human embryogenesis and evolution, and how perturbations in this process lead to disease.
