Ming Li studies how chemical modifications to DNA and RNA (epigenetics) influence disease, especially cancer and congenital heart defects. The work examines how these modifications turn genes on or off, how they affect tumor growth and the immune system, and how gene-environment interactions contribute to birth defects. Methods span laboratory experiments, animal models, and computational analysis of genomic data.
