I have been working in the Mallory Institute of Pathology for more than 25 years (started June 1990) as a research associate and then senior scientific staff. Early works were concentrated on the cell biology of colorectal adenomas. I have done culturing and measuring the cell proliferation of adenoma cells both in vitro and in vivo by organ culture and immunohistochemistry. I have been working on the Molecular Pathology for more than 14 years and attended numerous training sessions of PCR and other molecular techniques in research and clinical diagnostic area. As the demand of the department and my research, I have set up the GI research laboratory and the Diagnostic Molecular Pathology Laboratories in 1993 and 1996. I am currently working on the molecular diagnostics of tumors and infectious diseases. Other research areas include breast cancer research. Those involve the detection of AhR and NF-kB expression in animal tissue by immunohistochemistry. My expertise areas are histology, Immunohistochemistry, cell (tissue, organ) culture, molecular biology emphasized on the application of these techniques to clinical diagnostic purposes (i.e. tumor, genetic disease and infectious disease). During past 25 years I have also involved in a number of teaching opportunities. These include teaching and training of Medical residents in the Department of Pathology, technicians, and fellows for their medical training as well as assisting some of their interested research projects. I have also taught and Co-advised several graduate students on their research projects include MA and PhD students both as co-adviser and thesis defense committee. Regular teaching include Path PA710 and PA 600/700 courses for consecutive 6 years.
