个人简历

吴政博士，2011年毕业于复旦大学生命科学院，同年进入宾夕法尼亚州立大学，师从原位神经再生先驱者陈功教授，进行博士后学习，并于2016年8月晋升为该校研究型助理教授，2020年9月全职加入暨南大学粤港澳中枢神经再生研究院，担任研究组长。目前，着手开发第二代原位细胞重编技术，在补充功能性神经元的基础上，纠正或减低致病基因的表达。已经参与完成多项NIH和Alzheimer association的基金项目，先后在Nature Communications， Cell Stem Cell和Molecular Neurodegeneration等杂志上发表多篇研究论文，并获得5项美国发明专利。

研究领域

主要研究神经退行性疾病发病机制和干预治疗，开发原位神经再生技术用于补充丢失的神经细胞。""
