Research interests:
I explore the molecular mechanisms of human metabolic diseases (in the broad sense), discover clinically relevant biomarkers, and develop personalized treatment strategies. I have played a key role in several national and international scientific initiatives that have led to significant advancements in precision medicine. Currently, I lead a collaborative team at the Pharmaco-Omics Lab. We conduct a range of multi-omics-empowered translational and clinical research. We have a strong history of effectively collaborating with scientists from diverse backgrounds, spanning from laboratory research to clinical implementation.
