On the morning of October 25,Hangzhou Institute for Advanced Study (HIAS), UCAS held the 3rd "Frontier Intersection and Future Innovation" Young Scholar Salon. With the theme of "Population and Health", it was sponsored by Scientific Research and Platform Management Department and undertaken by the School of Life and Health Sciences.
Wang Xin, associate researcher of the School of Life and Health Sciences,first introduced the basic information and vision of the school, and expressed his gratitude to the Scientific Research Department for setting up an interdisciplinary communication platform for young researchers. He reported on the exploration of the pathogenesis of male infertility and research on the regulation of sperm-specific PIWI/piRNA pathway in mammalian spermatogenesis and male infertility caused by abnormal signaling pathway, thus providing theoretical basis and molecular targets for the diagnosis and treatment of male infertility.Dr. Sun Feifei introduced the construction of the public platform for molecular cell technology in the School of Life and Health Sciences, the training arrangements for major instruments, and reported that the nanodelivery system can realize the efficient delivery and uptake of insoluble drugs, thus improving the bioavailability and targeting of drugs, reducing the distribution of drugs in non-target sites, and providing a new path for the treatment of colon cancer.
Dr. Pu Jinyue from the School of Chemistry and Materials Science delivered a report entitled "Development and Application of RNA Polymerase Biosensors. It is to optimize T7 RNA polymerase through a phage-assisted continuous evolution system to develop biosensors with a wide range of applications such as protease activity detection, protein-protein interaction detection, and gene editing regulation.
Combined with his own experience in plasmon-enhanced light-matter interaction research,Dr. Zhou Ning from the School of Physics and Optoelectronic Engineeringintroduced the principles of surface plasmons and nanolasers, and explained the progress and application of fiber-integrated surface plasmon sensors in life health, environmental detection and other fields.
This academic salon for young scholars attracted many young researchers. They had heated and in-depth exchanges with great interest for the feasibility of interdisciplinary collaboration.
HIAS "Frontier Intersection and Future Innovation" Young Scholar Salon aims to provide a broader exchange and cooperation platform for the new generation of young talents for continuous innovation in the academic frontier, and to promote the mutual progress and common growth of young teachers.
