Resume

Yang Xiaohong received Ph.D. from the College of Pharmacy, Chongqing University in June 2019 and then she has been working at the Chongqing Institute of Green and Intelligent Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Her research focuses on the development of novel anti-resistance drugs based on natural products, application research of engineered exosomes in anti-infectious disease treatment, and development of new technologies for precise exosome detection. She has led multiple research projects, including National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) Youth Program, Chongqing Natural Science Foundation General Program and two enterprise collaborative projects. She has published over 30 SCI-indexed papers in journals such as Angewandte Chemie, Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, and Journal of Controlled Release (first/co-first author: 14 papers).
