Hang Zhou, PhD, is Assistant Professor in Department of Psychiatry, Yale School of Medicine. Dr. Zhou has a broad background in computational biology and psychiatric genetics with rich experience in genomic data analyses and inferences. The main research interest is to identify novel genetic risks and explore the biological etiology for alcohol use disorder, substance use disorders and the relationship with comorbidities. Dr. Zhou’s lab will continue research on addiction, sex differences and relationship between alcohol and cancers using large-scale human genetic data (SNP array, WES and whole genome sequencing), exploring Machine Learning and leveraging brain imaging data to investigate the mechanisms through broad collaborations.
