About

William (Peidong) Gao is a Ph.D. candidate in Genetics at Case Western Reserve University.

Academic Background

My academic work sits at the intersection of genetics, computational biology, and disease biology. I use bioinformatics and multi-omics analysis to study human islet biology, diabetes, and the cellular mechanisms behind metabolic disease.

Research Interests

• Human islet biology
• Diabetes
• Bioinformatics
• Multi-omics
• Gene regulation
• Single-cell analysis

Scientific Training

My training combines computational genomics with wet-lab experience in molecular biology, RNA-focused experiments, and metabolism-related research. This background shapes how I think about data: analysis should be reproducible, biologically grounded, and useful for asking better experiments.

Why I Built WillGaoLab

WillGaoLab is my public learning archive for statistics, papers, books, and scientific learning. I built it to make learning visible, reusable, and cumulative.

William Gao provides the academic credibility behind the work. WillGaoLab carries the long-term content assets.
