We are excited to announce a new lab member to our group, Jing Zhang. Jing was a Ph.D. candidate in the Graduate Group of Epidemiology and Biostatistics (GGEB) at the University of Pennsylvania and joins us as a postdoctoral fellow. Jing is interested in integrating contributions of common and rare genetic variation to autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and quantitative autistic traits in family-based studies to parse heterogeneity in ASD. Welcome to the lab Jing!
