Dr. Zhang Zhang is a Distinguished Professor of Beijing Institute of Genomics (BIG), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) & China National Center for Bioinformation (CNCB), and acts as Associate Director of the National Genomics Data Center (NGDC), which is part of BIG & CNCB. He obtained his PhD degree in Computer Science from Institute of Computing Technology, CAS in 2007, with a bioinformatics joint program with BIG, under the supervision of Jun Yu. Prior to joining BIG, he worked as Postdoctoral Associate at Yale University (advised by Jeffrey P. Townsend) in United States from 2007~2009 and Research Scientist at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (advised by Vladimir B. Bajic) in Saudi Arabia from 2009~2011.
In 2011, Dr. Zhang was appointed as Professor in the CAS 100-Talent Program by BIG. Considering the critical importance of multi-omics data, he focuses on biological data integration & curation and development of multi-omics data resources and new algorithms & tools. In 2016, Dr. Zhang co-founded the BIG Data Center and served as Executive Director responsible for the center development. In this role, he led the center team to construct a family of database resources and computational methods and to provide a range of data services in support of worldwide research activities. Importantly, he led the center development by setting the organizational structure and directions, establishing the scientific advisory board composed with global field experts, and building interactions and collaborations with worldwide institutions to maximize the scope of data sharing. Based on the BIG Data Center, NGDC and CNCB were officially founded in 2019. Over the past several years, Dr. Zhang developed more than forty database resources and computational tools, organized a series of scientific conferences for promotion of computational biology & bioinformatics domestically and internationally, and raised the general awareness of significant value of database resources as a fundamental infrastructure for biomedical research.
Dr. Zhang published more than 140 papers and his research achievements have been selected in the "Top 10 Advances in Bioinformatics in China". He was an Executive Committee member of the International Society for Biocuration (2015-2018) and now serves as Asian Regional Editor for Briefings in Bioinformatics (2017-) and Associate Editor-in-Chief for Genomics Proteomics & Bioinformatics (2012-). Towards a new paradigm from data to theory, he recently works on theoretical biology with new algorithms, models and laws for deciphering basic principles of life.

致同学们:在你决定是否选择我做导师前,务必三思。我是一位非著名学者,因此招生有一个基本原则:你别太好,免得我耽误你;也别太差,免得你耽误我。我理解你在选择导师时的盲目性,但你是否真有兴趣去做数据库、算法、理论等基础研究工作。如果你之前没有努力学习、认真生活的实践,你来到我这里会感到很难过。千万不要送礼,实在想送,毕业后可参考新基石科研项目。研究生阶段,师生更多的是团队合作关系,自主内驱、积极主动、协同攻坚、有效沟通非常重要,否则研究生阶段难有收获。有些性格妨碍沟通:自甘平庸,过分轻狂......科研如翻山越岭,定力、耐力、体力都很重要,勇敢面对,坚持不懈,遇到挑战和失败依然乐观前行,没有人能随随便便成功,谁都不例外。最后,欢迎报考,有勇气才会有运气。放心,我可能不是你最好的选择,但肯定不是你最差的选择(全局最优很难,局部最优不易)。(─节选改编自中科院计算所贺思敏老师)
