Welcome to my webpage


I am a postdoctoral fellow in Gronert Lab at UC Berkeley’s Herbert Wertheim School of Optometry and Vision Science. My research focuses on glaucoma and neuroinflammation using cutting-edge methods like single-cell transcriptomics, morphOmics, LC/MS/MS-based lipidomics, etc. Here, you can explore my academic journey, research projects, and publications.

My short-term goal is to investigate how Lipoxin B4 modulates disease-associated microglia in the optic nerve during ocular hypertension. To understand the functional phenotype of these microglia and their role in the progression of glaucomatous neuropathy.

My long-term vision is to advance the understanding of neurodegeneration driven by neuroinflammation, focusing on the cellular and molecular mechanisms that drive these processes. We will study the response of immune cells to stress and inflammation to find new treatments. Our goal is to develop therapies for neurodegenerative diseases through innovative research and collaboration.
