Dr. Xiaobao Xu obtained his Ph.D. degree from Zhejiang University, China. He is experienced in biomimicry drug self-delivery system based on red blood cells membrane, and immunotherapy based on combined checkpoint inhibitor with thermal therapy. Dr. Xu joined David Chen’s laboratory at the Department of Systems Biology in January 2019. His current projects focus on developing novel CRISPR-based systems for epigenome editing and cancer therapy
