Research Areas

To study mechanism of tumorigenesis regulated by abnormal glucose/lipid signatures, I developed mouse models with tumor-burden of cultured cells/patient-derived tissues with abnormal metabolic profiling that reflect human clinical symptoms.

During my postdoc training in Harvard Medical School/Brigham and Women’s Hospital and University of Cincinnati, I discovered that abnormal bio-lipids metabolism including prostaglandin and sphingosine biosynthesis, play crucial roles in tumorigenesis of TSC disorders. Furthermoredysregulated glucose metabolic signaling synergistically facilitate this process. Therefore, works point to potential molecular and pharmaceutic approaches that could further improve outcomes for theses clinically important malignant disorders.

My career objective is to conduct an independent translational research on cancers and associated organs/tissues injury, so that explore new therapeutic strategies.
