Biography

Lu Lab

I earned my Ph.D. in Biological Sciences from Purdue University in 2022 under the mentorship of Dr. Zhao-Qing Luo, where my research focused on the interactions between host proteins and bacterial pathogen effector proteins. In 2023, I joined Dr. Xin Lu's lab, where I am now investigating cancer immunology and the molecular mechanisms by which oncogenes regulate immune responses in cancer. Leveraging my expertise in biochemistry and cell biology, I aim to uncover new insights into the interplay between oncogenic signaling and the tumor immune microenvironment.
