Biography

I received my Ph.D. degree in Immunology from Baylor College of Medicine in 2007 and continued postdoctoral training in Stem Cell Biology with Dr. David T. Scadden at the MGH and Harvard Medical School until 2013. My early studies uncovered a novel regulatory mechanism of immune cells and dendritic cell survival mechanism to induce anti-cancer immunity. Later, I extended these researches to discover the in vivo kinetics of bone forming cells and in vivo identity of skeletal stem cells in periosteum (outer bone layer) and bone marrow. We now focus on uncovering skeletal stem cell heterogeneity, their specific regulators and novel therapeutic strategies targeting bone diseases, regeneration and aging.
