Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Xiaozheng Yao"
- Xiaozheng Yao's research primarily focuses on the development of innovative tools for analyzing biological and environmental data, including FORGEdb, which identifies candidate functional variants linked to complex diseases, and cProSite, a comprehensive platform for online proteomics and genomics analysis.
- His studies also explore the socio-environmental dynamics and migration responses to climate shocks through agent-based modeling, specifically examining how demographic behaviors and agricultural practices adapt under varying climate conditions, as seen in the Nang Rong district of Thailand.
- Additionally, Yao's earlier work emphasizes the impact of land use changes in various ecological settings, employing agent-based models to simulate decision-making processes at the household level in regions like the Ecuadorian Amazon and Northeastern Thailand, assessing the implications for agriculture and population-environment interactions.
