Boyang Fu (付伯阳)

Postdoctoral Fellow, Department of Biomedical Informatics, Harvard Medical School

I am a postdoctoral research fellow at Harvard Medical School, Department of Biomedical Informatics, advised by Prof. Marinka Zitnik. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science at UCLA, where I was advised by Prof. Sriram Sankararaman. I earned my Bachelor's Degree (Summa Cum Laude) from Rutgers University with majors in Computer Science (Highest Honor) and Mathematics. Prior to that, I attended Huazhong University of Science and Technology and majored in bioinformatics (Honors Program), and transferred to Rutgers University in January 2016.

I develop AI/ML methods for complex biological data, with a particular focus on human genetics and genomics. My research topics include understanding nonlinear genetic variant behavior in high-dimensional settings, using multi-omics to decode functional genomics, and leveraging genetic variation for causal inference.
