Research Fellow, Department of Anatomy and Developmental Biology – Monash University
Dr Yu Bo Yang Sun gained his PhD degree in 2018 from the School of Biomedical Sciences, Monash University, where he worked on the networks of the TGF-β/Smads signalling pathways in the animal models of kidney fibrosis. In 2018, he moved on to do his postdoc with Professor Jose Polo to work on reprogramming of adult cells into induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. His research focuses on establishing next-generation molecular techniques and analysis of cellular state transitions of pluripotent stem cells. Bo has received various awards during his PhD for his work in the field of nephrology and presented his work at various international conferences, including The International Society of Nephrology, Australian and New Zealand Society of Nephrology.
