Biography

Jiangbin Ye is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Radiation Oncology at Stanford University, specializing in Radiation Cancer Biology. He earned his Ph.D. in Cancer Biology from the University of Pennsylvania in 2010 and a Bachelor of Science in Biological Science from Fudan University in 2004. His research interests encompass the interplay between metabolic stress and chromatin remodeling, as well as serine one-carbon unit metabolism in cancer and nutrient-sensing mechanisms in mammalian cells. Ye has contributed significantly to understanding how malignant cells modulate metabolic pathways to promote cancer progression. His work investigates the causes and consequences of abnormal metabolic phenotypes in cancer cells, particularly in response to microenvironmental stresses such as hypoxia and nutrient deprivation. He aims to develop therapeutic approaches that target metabolic pathways to improve cancer treatment. Throughout his academic career, he has been affiliated with prestigious institutions including Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and Abramson Family Cancer Research Institute. Ye has also received numerous awards and honors for his research excellence.
