Biography

Chia-Lin Hsu received her PhD degree in Immunology from Duke University, focusing on cytokine signaling and lineage commitment in hematopoiesis. She was trained as postdoctoral research fellow at Genentech, a San Francisco-based biotechnology company. During this period, she discovered that the nucleoside equilibrium is crucial to the homeostasis of immune system, and when out-of-balance, can lead to lysosomal storage disease-like phenotypes. She then accepted the position as Senior Scientist at the Center of Innovative Therapeutics, Pfizer. She was the biology lead of a multi-centers project that aims to develop immune-modulatory therapeutics with the combined efforts from both pharmaceutical and academic laboratories. She returned to Taiwan in 2013, and now is an Assistant Professor at the Institute of Microbiology and Immunology, National Yang-Ming University.
