Biography

Quanyin Hu is an Associate Professor in the School of Pharmacy at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. His research focuses on developing innovative delivery approaches to address clinical challenges and facilitate translational research, particularly in the fields of cell therapy, immunotherapy, and personalized therapy. He is particularly interested in engineering cells and cell derivatives to create delivery vehicles for both small and large molecules, including proteins and antibodies, targeting a wide range of diseases such as cancer, infectious diseases, and autoimmune disorders. His lab emphasizes the importance of modulating immune responses through interactions between synthetic materials and immune cells to advance personalized therapy. Hu's work aims to transform traditional 'one-size-fits-all' treatment paradigms into precision medicine tailored to the individual. He obtained his Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from the joint program at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and North Carolina State University in 2018, and completed his postdoctoral training at the Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research at MIT.
