Ruoyun Wang

Wang lab

Ruoyun graduated from Nanjing University with a BS degree.  There she studied biological science. Here at Dartmouth she is in our Molecular and Systems Biology department and she studies the function of chromatin remodeler SWI/SNF complex in Pancreatic Cancer. She is trying to use sequencing methods to characterize the genomic targeting of SWI/SNF, such as promoter and enhancer regulation. She hopes this will help understanding epigenome and related diseases. Her hobbies are skiing, cooking, playing video games and playing the piano.
