Biography

I currently research Neurovascular Interactions, particularly Blood-Retina Barrier, Retinal Angiogenesis, and Retinopathies. I focus on how the Norrin/FZD4 signaling regulates Blood-Retina Barrier and Retinal Angiogenesis for subsequent applications in retinopathies. I previously researched the role of miRNAs and circular RNAs in regulating skeletal muscle myogenesis and showed that circRNA CDR1as regulates myogenesis by serving as a competing RNA for muscle-related miRNAs. I have acquired knowledge in Neurovascular Interactions and Animal Genetics which I contribute to drug discovery for the better development of science.
