Dr. Howard Chang
Scientific Co-founder, Epinomics
Professor of Dermatology
Stanford University School of Medicine
Blavatnik National Award
Finalist 2014
Recognized for studies and methods development on gene regulation and the role of non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs)
Dr. Chang's research addresses how large sets of genes are coordinated to carry out biological programs, such as in development, cancer, and aging. Dr. Chang pioneered discoveries of long noncoding RNAs that control gene activity throughout the genome, illuminating a new layer of biological regulation. The long term goal of his research is to decipher the regulatory information in the genome to benefit human health.
