Biography

Dr. Qinqin Hu received her Ph.D. degree in biosystem engineering from Zhejiang University (2016), finished her postdoctoral training, and worked as an assistant professor at Institutes of Biomedicine of Fudan University (2016-2021). She is now an associate professor at School of Global Health, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine (2022-now). Dr. Hu’s expertise is in the areas of establishing biosensors and screening functional nucleic acids. In particular, she is interested in developing innovative optical nanomaterial-based biosensors for rapid detection of hazards and pathogens in food and the environment, as well as selection of aptamers or DNAzymes for disease diagnostic and identification of molecules related to diseases. Dr. Hu has published 8 papers (total IF > 100) as the first author, wherein there are 3 papers with an impact factor of over 10. Her publications have been cited > 470 times (ESI = 1). She has published one academic book and authorized or applied 4 patents. Dr. Hu has hosted 4 research projects including the Youth Program of the National Natural Science Foundation of China.
