CPPS Virtual Research Seminar Series Speaker Ai-Ming Yu
March 10, 2021 @ 12:10 pm - 1:00 pm
FreeMoving microRNAs towards targeted therapy
Presented by: Ai-Ming Yu; Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine, UC Davis School or Medicine.
Dr. Yu’s research interests include noncoding RNA pharmacoepigenetics, anticancer pharmacology and experimental therapeutics. The ultimate goal of his research is to translate noncoding RNAs to new therapies. Current efforts in his laboratory are directed to the investigation of (a) the mechanistic actions of microRNAs in the regulation of cancer cellular processes including drug/xenobiotic disposition and tumor progression and metastasis, (b) novel RNA bioengineering technologies, and (c) recombinant RNAs for basic research and drug development.
Dr. Yu also directs the PK/PD Bioanalytical Core Facility at UC Davis that provides services in support of the clinical and preclinical drug development programs, and the Molecular Pharmacology Shared Resources that supports high-quality collection, processing and analysis of clinical specimens and conducts preclinical modeling and evaluation of novel anticancer agents or combination.
