wanna meet Feringa Lab CarreiraGroup Gang Han Huiyu Sherri A. McFarland Ben Zhong TANG Thorn-Seshold Lab 🇺🇦 Dirk H. Trauner Nobuhiro Yanai Guangyu Zhu and many more big names in Hong Kong this Nov, where the 'East meets West' and the 'new meets old'? Please register now.

two cover stories on our photoreponsive PAMAM-based nanosystems for delivering proteins and small molecules (PCT Patent No. PCT/CN2022/097804) doi.org/10.1007/s12274… doi.org/10.1002/adhm.2…

very pleased to have joined this multidisciplinary study, collaborating with Jiguang Wang Yiyun Chen and others.

A single IV injection of our photoresponsive nanomedicine can achieve almost complete CNV occlusion for AMD treatment. #AMD #photopharmacology #oculardrugdelivery doi.org/10.1002/advs.2…

10 days to go! you still can register and join Photopharmacology IV HKU Medicine HKU Pharmacy A super opportunity to meet Feringa Lab CarreiraGroup Huiyu Sherri A. McFarland Ben Zhong TANG Thorn-Seshold Lab 🇺🇦 Dirk H. Trauner Nobuhiro Yanai Guangyu Zhu Janez Ilaš Timo Laaksonen Nikita Durandin..

Another photoresponsive nanomedince for eye disease treatment. We used photocleavable #prodrugs. #oculardrugdelivery #photopharmacology @AdvSciNews onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…

too busy to update the position here. happy to change it to be tenured Associated Professor. Thank you to all my colleagues, collaborators, lab members, as well as family.

It's my great honor to chair #Photopharmacology IV. A very successful conference held HKU Medicine. Thank you to all speakers and participants (~120) from ~20 countries, as well as conference staff, organizers (HKU Pharmacy), supporting organizations, and sponsors. See you in 2025！

proud of you, Yuwei Aria Yuwei LIU HKU Pharmacy, being awarded the Oral Presentation Winner (First Prize with a MacBook Pro) in HKU Medicine 28th Research Postgraduate Symposium 2023.

Simple is beautiful! We further achieved upconversion-like photolysis with only one-step energy transfer. Thank you Nobuhiro Yanai for your foundation work. Good job Kaiqi Long nature.com/articles/s4146…

This time it's not the light-related research. We found that amino acid-starved cancer cells utilize macropinocytosis and ubiquitin-proteasome system for nutrient acquisition, and demonstrated a strategy for #starvationtherapy. @AdvSciNews doi.org/10.1002/advs.2…

We designed a simple polymeric prodrug strategy to use a common compound cinnamaldehyde (肉桂醛) for the treatment of #RheumatoidArthritis and #UlcerativeColitis. @AdvSciNews

proud of my students, Yaming & Shuting HKU Pharmacy HKU Medicine, who won 2 gold and 1 silver award at the 49th International Exhibition of Inventions Geneva!

Here acesse.dev/QU5fC Adv Optical Mat we employed endothermic triplet energy transfer to deprotect BODIPY photocage using 730 nm light vs conventional 530 nm photopharmacologypapers. Our first collab with Weiping Wang Kaiqi Long 😊 together with Jussi Isokuortti 👏Timo Laaksonen 🤝

We attempted to discuss the relationship between #photopharmacology and #photoresponsivedrugdelivery. Excited to present the review article Chem Soc Rev, a journal I admired and aspired to publish in during my PhD studies.

Happy to see our research HKU Medicine HKU Pharmacy featured on the HKU homepage: "To beat cancer, starve it". hku.hk/press/press-re…

happy to see our review highlighted on the front cover of the latest issue of Chemical Society Reviews: xlink.rsc.org/?DOI=D5CS00125K
