Harvard Catalyst Profiles

I earned my Bachelor's degree from National Taiwan University (Taipei, Taiwan) in 2000, followed by a PhD at Stanford University (Stanford, California, USA), which I completed in 2012. During my PhD, I received the Department of Defense Breast Cancer Research Program Traineeship Award in 2009. My research on DNA damage response and cell cycle regulation led to several key publications in Molecular Cell. After graduating, I joined Dr. Cimprich lab at Stanford as a Postdoctoral Researcher and later moved to Harvard Medical School in 2013, where I became a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Laboratory of Systems Pharmacology.
Currently, my research focuses on using computational and experimental approaches to study drug-gene interactions in cancer, with a particular focus on developing innovative imaging techniques for both live-cell imaging and multiplexed analysis of clinical samples. My goal is to understand how genetic variations impact signaling networks to inform more effective therapeutic strategies.
