About Fanying Tang
Highly curious and self-motivated computational biologist at Novartis Biomedical Research, with extensive experience in applying multi‑omics approaches to therapy development and drug discovery. I specialize in integrating complex datasets to identify biomarkers for patient stratification, nominate therapeutic targets, and explore mechanisms of action.I have a strong track record of managing concurrent projects and collaborating effectively across preclinical programs, clinical trials and translational studies, communicating complex findings clearly to both scientific and cross‑functional stakeholders.
