Research Interest

  1. Key targets and regulatory mechanisms of tumor radiotherapy. These include the mining of key regulatory genes and pathways of different radiation particles, the clarification of regulatory mechanisms of key targets to radiation, and the screening of multi-target radiotherapy sensitization drugs.
  2. The role of different subcellular organelles in the process of DNA repair or apoptosis.
    Using NMR spectroscopy to screen radiosensitizers.
