Fan ZHOU

Fan ZHOU is a Faculty member in the School of Life Sciences at Tsinghua University. Dr. Zhou obtained a B.S. from Datong University (2005-2010) and a Ph.D. from the Academy of Military Medical Sciences (2010-2016). Following a postdoctoral fellowship at Peking University (2016-2020), Dr. Zhou joined Tsinghua University as an Assistant Professor and was promoted to Associate Professor. Dr. Zhou's research focuses on single-cell multi-omics analysis, in vitro/vivo models for cell fate transition, and regulatory mechanisms in embryo implantation and tumor evolution. Dr. Zhou is a Principal Investigator at the Tsinghua-Peking Center for Life Sciences.

Fan Zhou is an Associate Professor at Tsinghua University, specializing in cell fate, embryo development, single-cell function, and single-cell omics. Their research focuses on understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying hematopoietic stem cell formation, embryonic lineage tracing, and the role of single-cell technologies in decoding developmental processes. Zhou's work includes studies on the transcriptome and DNA methylome landscapes of human implantation, the regulation of brain tumor drainage through meningeal lymphatic vessels, and the development of primate embryo models for gastrulation and early pregnancy. Their research integrates single-cell omics approaches to uncover functional heterogeneity and lineage commitment during critical developmental stages.
