Tao is an expert in high-throughput sequencing, functional genomics, circRNA biochemistry, RNA base editing, and molecular engineering. As a postdoc, Tao developed circRNA sequencing methods to measure circRNA expression profiles for biomarker discovery and mechanistic studies (manuscript in preparation). Tao is also developing a method to map the binding sites of RNA binding proteins on circRNAs to investigate the function of circRNA-protein interactions.
