Career Trajectory
Bio
I graduated in medicine from Medical school of Peking Univeristy (Beijing Medical University) in Beijing, China in1984, and worked in the Beijing Hepatitis Research Institute of Young Hospital where I carried out research work on infectious diseases, particularly for hepatitis. In 1992, I joined a group in the University of Glasgow to investigate the role of inducible nitric oxide in infection and immunity and gained a PhD degree in 1996. My post-doctoral research has concentrated on investigating the role of the cytokines IL-15 and IL-18 in infectious and autoimmune diseases and seeking a practical anti-cytokine therapy to treat the inflammatory disorder, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In 2002, as a senior research fellow, my research was supported by the Arthritis Research UK to study the function of IL-18 and its receptors in RA. During the time I developed my research into a field of IL-12 cytokine family and identified a novel immune suppressive cytokine IL-35. In 2004, I was pointed as a lecturer in The Dental School of Cardiff University in UK and then promoted further to be a senior lecturer recently. My research now is focusing on studying the role of novel IL-34 and IL-35 cytokines in the regulation of host immunity, particular tissue macrophages in regards to Candida infection, tumour survival, skin vaccine and skin/spinal wound healing. I am also interested in studying the functions of those cytokines associations with mineralised tissue destruction.
