With lifelong passion for virus-based gene delivery, Dr. Pei-Yu Wu assumes the research and development mission of TFBS as a solid support to TFBS’s viral vector manufacturing services. Dr. Wu is a molecular and cellular biologist with extensive research experience on many aspects of biomedical science, ranging from protein signal-transduction, innate immunity and inflammatory responses, DNA damage and genomic instability, viral-host interactions, to translational mouse model for cancer therapeutics. His particular know-hows include design of mammalian expression and virus package plasmid vectors (e.g., episomal, Lentiviral, and γ-retroviral vectors), cell line establishment (e.g., cell adaptation, cloning, sorting, and stable expression), protein engineering (e.g., functional mutation, surface expression, recombinant ScFv, and directed evolution), microscopic assessment (e.g., confocal microscopy, and laser micro-irradiation), and next-generation sequencing analysis. Prior to TFBS, Dr. Wu worked as a senior research scientist in Taiwan protein project and a postdoctoral fellow at Academia Sinica for more than a decade, where he took cumulating responsibilities for managing laboratory and research projects, and training 5 Ph.D. students. As results of these works, he is the author of 16 peer-reviewed publications with several first and corresponding authorships, and holds issued patents in US and Taiwan.
Dr. Wu received his Ph.D. degree in cancer biology from L’Université Toulouse III – Paul Sabatier, France, and his M.Sc. degree in veterinary medicine and B.Sc. degree in zoology, both from National Chung-Hsing Universiy, Taiwan.
