Chuck Herring is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Western Australia (UWA) and the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research, working in Prof. Ryan Lister's laboratory. His research program focuses on gaining a comprehensive understanding of the gene regulatory landscape and its role in cell development and identity, particularly in the context of developing the prefrontal cortex. He places particular emphasis on the development of analytical tools that map dynamic changes in cell states. Herring obtained his Bachelor of Science degree with a focus in Physics from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte before completing his Ph.D. under the guidance of Prof. Ken Lau at Vanderbilt University in 2018. After his doctoral studies, Herring joined Prof. Ryan Lister's lab as a postdoctoral fellow. His recent work has centered on characterizing the gene regulatory landscape of the human prefrontal cortex from gestation to adulthood, employing cutting-edge single-cell resolution techniques that provide valuable insights into human brain development and potential implications for brain-related disorders.
