Dr. Yanjing Zhu graduated from the College of Life Science and Technology of Tongji University with a PhD in biology, and finished the joint training project from Stony Brook University. She is currently a researcher at Tongji Hospital affiliated to Tongji University, Key Laboratory of Spine and Spinal Cord Injury Repair and Regeneration of Ministry of Education. She is committed to the research of 'Intelligent biomaterials development and Neural regeneration and repair', revealing the unique biological properties of nanomaterials in the improvement of microenvironment and regeneration and repair of nerve injury, and deeply analyzing its mechanism. Combined with deep learning, she developed intelligent nanomedical screening system and stem cell fate prediction system, and obtained a series of research results, which effectively promoted the related research of biomaterials to repair nerve damage. To date, she has hosted National Natural Fund projects, the Shanghai Rising-Star Program and one Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities and participated in several National Natural Science Foundation projects. She has published more than twenty SCI papers, which have been cited more than 1000 times, including eleven papers as the first author. Including Nat Commun., Adv Drug Deliv Rev., Adv Sci., Asian J Pharm Sci., Elife, etc., including three cover articles and two ESI highly cited articles. She has obtained three authorized Chinese invention patents, and one patent has entered the national stage of the United States through PCT international patents.
