个人简介

Dr. Lu got his PhD in Hong Kong Baptist University. He spent 3 years in Icahn School of medicine at Mount Sinai for postdoctoral training before joining University of Macau as an assistant professor. Dr. Lu is an expert in neurobiology, cell biology and pharmacology. His major research interests are autophagy in human diseases and pharmacological study on traditional Chinese medicine. Dr. Lu tries to combine biochemistry, cell biology and neurobiology approaches, and apply cell, fruit fly and transgenic mouse models to identify small molecular autophagy modulators with therapeutic potential for human diseases including neurodegenerative diseases, cancer and inflammatory diseases. Dr. Lu has published a series of papers as first author or corresponding author in high profile journal including: Nature Communications, Autophagy (5), Molecular neurodegeneration, Cell death and disease (2), Pharmacological research…, with a total citation of over 3,600 times (WoS).Academic QualificationsB.M., Xiangya School of Medicine, Central South UniversityM.S., State key lab of Medical genetics, Central South UniversityPh.D., Hong Kong Baptist UniversityTeachingCMED7012-Targets and Models for Drug ScreenGEST 1017-Modern Drug Discovery Drugs and HealthCMED 7017-Across the Gap between Science and IndustryCMED8010-Advanced pharmacology
