Research summary
AI-generated

Wennan Chang's publication record spans two rather different areas: earlier work on brain-computer interfaces, robotics, and prosthetic/rehabilitation devices, and OpenAlex topic tags pointing to more recent interests in computational biology, including single-cell and spatial transcriptomics, gene expression analysis, and statistical (Bayesian) methods for biological data. Prospective students should note this apparent shift from bioengineering/robotics toward computational genomics and data analysis methods, and may want to look closely at the most recent publications to understand the current focus.
