个人简介

009年于中科院上海生物化学与细胞生物学研究所获得细胞生物学博士学位，随后在斯柯里普斯研究所（The Scripps Research Institute）以及美国加州大学旧金山分校戴维•格拉斯通研究所（J. David Gladstone Institutes）从事博士后研究工作，导师为著名的化学生物学家丁胜教授。在国际上首次揭示细胞内的代谢是如何通过影响表观遗传来调控Th17细胞的分化（Nature, 2017）。国际顶级杂志Cell Metabolism发表了专评对这项工作进行了高度评价( Cell Metabolism 26; 588-590, 2017)。此外，还识别了第一代RORγt的选择性抑制剂（JBC，2011），Nature杂志社的SCI-BX 对此作了专评，还被Nature Review Immunology评为10年来重要的免疫学进展之一。

研究领域

本实验室的主要研究兴趣为利用高通量筛选，包括化学小分子筛选和遗传学筛选（chemical screening and genetic screening）以及组学, 包括基因组，代谢组，和蛋白组学（genomics, metabolomics and proteomics）的手段来解析：1）胞内代谢如何调控免疫细胞的命运及功能；2）肿瘤微环境中免疫耐受机制的研究， 3）克隆能特异识别肿瘤的T 细胞。同时我们也将着力于将这些基础研究的成果转化为临床应用。
