Dr. Huan Zhao (also named as Huanhuan Zhao) is a Research Fellow at the Biometry Hub on the Waite Campus of the University of Adelaide (UA). She works as a team member of the Analytics for the Australian Grains Industry in University of Adelaide (AAGI-UA) and provides analytical supports to pre-breeding and breeding projects, Dr. Zhao possesses a deep understanding of plant breeding and Genetics. She has more recently specialized in developing and validating genomic prediction models with large-scale genomic and phenomic datasets. Her research also extends to identifying genomic regions associated with complex traits through genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and assessing genetic gains in breeding programs via computer simulation.
