About
Mabel Teng is a pioneering molecular biologist whose work has fundamentally advanced single-cell genomics. Her key research areas include the development of novel sequencing technologies and the integration of genomic and transcriptomic data at the resolution of individual cells. Teng’s most significant contribution is the invention of G&T-seq, a groundbreaking method that enables the simultaneous separation and parallel sequencing of genomic DNA and transcriptomic RNA from the same single cell. This technique, detailed in her highly cited 2016 paper (192 citations), overcomes a critical limitation in single-cell biology by allowing researchers to directly link genetic variation with gene expression profiles within the same cell. By providing a comprehensive view of cellular heterogeneity, G&T-seq has become an essential tool for studying complex biological processes such as tumor evolution, developmental biology, and cellular responses to stimuli. Her work has been recognized for its transformative impact, earning her a reputation as a leader in the field of single-cell omics and paving the way for deeper insights into the molecular mechanisms driving health and disease.
