教育和工作经历

　　本科毕业于山西大学生命科学学院，硕士毕业于山西大学生物技术研究所，博士毕业于中科院遗传与发育生物学研究所，发育生物学专业。2010－2016分别与新加坡Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology, 和 Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine, Nanyang Technological University，开展以斑马鱼位模式动物的Hh信号通路分子机制的研究。2016年11月全职加入山西大学生物医学研究院。

 

主要研究方向

　　Hedgehog（Hh）信号通路是古老而保守的信号通路，在动物胚胎发育、形态建成和组织器官发生，以及成体物质能量代谢稳定中发挥重要的作用。Hh信号通路活性异常会导致胚胎发育失败、畸形，以及一系列相关疾病的发生。前脑无裂畸形（holoprosencephaly）以及更为严重的独眼畸形（cyclopia）是典型的Hh信号通路异常导致的发育缺陷。许多器官癌症，包括脑癌、肺癌、乳腺癌、前列腺癌和皮肤癌等的发生都与Hh信号通路异常激活有关。因此，对于Hh信号通路分子机制的研究，可以帮助我们探索这些疾病的发病机理，发现新的疾病治疗位点，研发新药物和有效的治疗方案。现阶段本实验室主要研究方向有：

1. Hh信号通路下游分子机制的探索

2. 初级纤毛中信号分子的鉴定与人类相关疾病机制的研究

3. Hh信号通路特异性药物的筛选和平台的建立
