Qi Ye, PhD

BIOGRAPHY AND RESEARCH INTEREST

BIOGRAPHY

​

She joined Dr. Kim’s lab in January 2013, and her major research focus in Kim's lab was to investigate the effects of early-life brain iron loading, due to either genetic or environmental factors, on behavior phenotype as well as epigenetic regulation of neurochemical signaling in the brain. she learned to be come an independent researcher under Dr Kim’s guidance. she has always been enjoying working with Kim lab members, and we made many memorable achievements together in the past years. After graduation in May 2018, she started to working as post-doc fellow at Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute of Baylor College of Medicine.
