Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) /steatohepatitis (MASH)
Biography
Dr. Yaqian XUE is currently a Post-doctoral Fellow at the Department of Medicine, School of Clinical Medicine, The University of Hong Kong. She received her Ph.D. in Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, with a focus on metabolic diseases, from the Shanghai Institute of Nutrition and Health, Chinese Academy of Sciences. She obtained her Bachelor of Science degree from Hebei Agricultural University. Her postdoctoral research is centered on elucidating novel molecular mechanisms and identifying biomarkers for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and dyslipidemia. Her research employs a multi-disciplinary approach spanning human biomarker discovery, genetic animal models, and molecular cell biology to advance the understanding and treatment of metabolic diseases.
