Rongling WuDr. Rongling Wu is a Distinguished Professor and the Director of the Center for Statistical Genetics at The Pennsylvania State University. He continues to collaborate with his previous institution, the Beijing Forestry University. He received his PhDin forest genetics at the University of Washington in 1995. He was appointed as Assistant Professor of Statistics at the University of Florida in 2000 and awarded the University Foundation Professorship in 2007. He has developed functional mapping to reveal the genetic architecture of developmental trajectories and integrated this approach into the context of evo-devo research into evolutionary novelties. Recently, he has introduced game theory into complex-trait mapping, from which a systems evolutionary game network theory is proposed to strengthen and broaden the field of quantitative genetics. Dr. Wu's work has been cited and highlighted by top journals. Read More Read Less
