Biography

Peining Li's research activities focus on the structural and functional characterization of human chromosome abnormalities. Utilizing molecular methods such as fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), mapping, microsatellite allelotyping, and next-generation sequencing, Li has performed high-throughput chromosome-specific genome-wide analysis to map segmental deletions and duplications and sequence rearrangement breakpoints. The ultimate goals of these research efforts are to identify disease-causing genes and biomarkers with diagnostic and prognostic values while dissecting the underlying molecular mechanisms.
