Wenjie Cai conducts biomedical research spanning two main directions: the genetic and brain-imaging basis of psychiatric and neurological conditions (such as depression, schizophrenia, and traumatic brain injury), and blood cell biology and blood cancers studied through advanced sequencing methods. A recurring tool across this work is single-cell and spatial transcriptomics, which measures gene activity in individual cells while preserving information about where they sit in a tissue.
