RESEARCH INTERESTS

1)      Design and synthesis of anti-Alzheimer’s disease agents.

2)      Design and synthesis of the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) MEK1 inhibitors as antitumor and antivirus agents.

3)      Computer-aided drug design (QSAR, Pharmacophore modeling, molecular docking and de novo design)

4)      Fragment-based ligand discovery and drug design

 

EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCES

1)      2002 - 2007: Ph.D candidate in Medicinal Chemistry, School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Peking University Health Science Center

2)      1998 - 2002: B.S. in Pharmaceutics, School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Peking University Health Science Center

 

RESEARCH EXPERIENCES

1)      Aug. 2013 - present: Associate Professor, Department of Medicinal Chemistry, School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Peking University Health Science Center, China

2)      Jan. 2011 - Apr. 2011: Postdoc., Institute of Pharmacy, University of Innsbruck, Austria

3)      Aug. 2007 - Jul. 2013: Lecturer, Department of Medicinal Chemistry, School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Peking University Health Science Center, China

 

RESEARCH PROJECTS

1)      Structure based de novo design and synthesis of non-peptidomimetic β-secretase inhibitors as anti-Alzheimer’s disease agnets. Three series of novel fragments, including hexahydropyrimidin-5-ol, benzamidine and 2-aminobenzimidazole, and two novel scaffolds were identified and optimized as novel inhibitors using both ligand and fragment-based docking and virtual screening.

2)      Design and synthesis of allosteric inhibitors of the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) MEK1 as antitumor and antiviral agents.

3)      Design, synthesis and biological evaluations of furan-based peptidic proteasome inhibitors as anti-tumor agents.

      

TEACHING EXPERIENCES

Computer-Aided Drug Design for graduate students;

Medicinal Chemistry for undergraduate students;

Experiments in Medicinal Chemistry for undergraduate, in which phenytoin sodium is synthesized in four steps.
