The main research interest in Dr. Gang Li's lab is to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the contribution of disease-associated, non-coding functional SNPs to aging-related diseases by focusing on Alzheimer's disease and atherosclerosis. Dr. Li's lab has developed multiple techniques such as Reel-seq, SNP-seq, FREP/SDCP-MS and AIDP-Wb to identify the causal SNPs as well as the SNP-bound regulatory proteins based on genome wide association studies (GWAS). The lab's goal is to use human genetics (GWAS) as a guide to identify new drug targets and, ultimately, to apply these findings to develop allele-specific precision drugs for aging-related human diseases as well as other diseases.
