Biography

Dr. Shu’s research is focused on (1) RNA nanotechnology: use RNA as a nanotechnology platform to construct RNA nanoparticles with functional modalities for therapeutics, targeting, and diagnostics (ACS Nano, 2015; Nature Nanotechnology, 2011; Nano Letters, 2004); and (2) Single molecule biophysical studies: use single-molecule detection (such as FRET) to understand the structure-function relationship for individual biomolecules (ACS Nano, 2010; EMBO Journal, 2007; RNA, 2007). Her long-term objective is to focus on the development and translation of RNA nanotechnology-based therapeutics and imaging agents into clinical trials.
