Research summary
AI-generated

Bingxin Zhao's research combines large-scale genetic data, medical imaging, and health records (such as UK Biobank) to study how genetics influence brain structure, blood vessel geometry, and disease risk across the body. This work often uses statistical genetics methods like genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and Mendelian randomization (a technique for testing potential causal relationships between health traits) alongside imaging and proteomic (protein-level) data. The lab also develops computational tools and risk-prediction frameworks intended to support precision medicine research.
