Zhiping Weng is the Li Weibo Professor of biomedical research and chair of the program in integrative biology and bioinformatics at the University of Massachusetts Medical School.[1][3][4][5] She was awarded Fellowship of the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB) in 2020 for outstanding contributions to computational biology and bioinformatics.[6][7]
Education
Weng was educated at the University of Science and Technology of China[8] and Boston University where her PhD on the biochemistry of protein-ligand binding was supervised by Charles DeLisi and awarded in 1997.[9][2]
Career and research
Weng's research interests are in bioinformatics, computational biology, genomics, epigenomics and transcriptional regulation.[1] She is known for her ZDOCK suite of protein-protein docking algorithms,[10] leadership of ENCODE,[11][12] PsychENCODE,[13] and work on small RNA biology and piwi-interacting RNA (piRNAs).[1][3][4]
Awards and honors
Weng is a Fellow of the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB)[7] and the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE).[when?]
