time: 2018-04-18

  On the forenoon of April 12nd in 2018, the sub-forum of the excellent young scholars from home and abroad forum of South China University of Technology was held in Dongtang hall of the Academic of Food Science and Technology.

  The Dr.Jiang graduated from Harvard University, Dr.Wang from the Barshop Institute for Longevity and Aging, Dr.Han from USANA Health Science Inc.,Dr. Zhu from Thermo Fisher and Dr. Huang from Cantonbio CO.,Ltd shared their new research resultswith the teachers and students. More than 60 people attended this session,include the Party secretary of the college Ruihan Yi, the Dean Xin an Zeng, leading scholar Mouming Zhao and the other teachers and students. Dean Xin an Zeng held this seminar.

The theme of Dr. Jiang’s report was ‘high stable biological device’s application in biocatalysis, biosensor and medicine screening’. She introduced the development of single cell reactor, flexible biosensor, wearable microfluidic control device and other biological devicesfrom the aspects of improving organism’s stability and the realization of the materials and devices’multi-functions, and its applications on bio-industry, disease examination and treatment.

      Dr. Wang’s report is about ‘short gun lipidomics’ advantages and its applications’. She used high throughput short gun lipidomics technology to screen and identify the small molecular biomarker related to diseases in varied disease models, aiming to discover and treat the disease early; in the meantime, she analyzed the lipidomics of disease group and control group and detect the change of the lipid, to provide powerful evidences and research direction for the study of diseases’ pathogenesis.

      Dr. Han’s report theme was ‘the study of plant derived natural products’ bioactivities and functions’. By using several examples, he introduced hisresearches on essential oil’s bioactivities and functions in the past three years, including the human body cell model researches and the study on clinic trials.

      Dr. Zhu’s report was about ‘the ETD and SPS-MS3 MS methods applied in the high accuracy and high flux qualitative and quantitative analysis of complete glycopeptide’. He mainly talked about the MS analysis method on theglycoprotein medicines and the impurities of the host cell protein in protein medicines, and the proteomics for clinic plasma samples.

Dr. Huang introduced his research about the high throughput screening on Saccharomyces cerevisiaemutant bank which could secrete recombination protein by using microfluidic control flow cytometry, and the mutant clone with high protein secreting ability was successfully obtained; after that, he carried a further study on the mutants and related mutation genes based on the whole genomics technology, offering effective strategies and novel transformation target for the research and application on the use of eukaryote to produce recombination protein. His researches showed the new reformed path and target were helpful to the further studies on the research related to protein secretion.

The seminar by excellent young scholars from home and abroad provides a good chance for academic communication, playing a positive role on promoting the communication and cooperation among our college and the famous universities and scientific research institutes from abroad, and broaden the teachers and students’ academic horizontals. It’s an important way for our college to promote the academic communication and appeal global excellent talents.
