Background & Interests

Biography

Bokai is currently a postdoctoral researcher in the lab who is interested in developing experimental and computational tools for spatial-multiomics platforms.

Prior to that, Bokai obtained his PhD degree in Microbiology and Immunology from Stanford University, under the supervision of Prof. Garry Nolan. He received my bachelor’s degree in Biology from Cornell University and Zhejiang University. Bokai is originally from China, Beijing. Outside of lab, Bokai enjoys playing soccer IRL or in video games.
