Systems-level regulation of microRNA networks by miR-130/301 promotes pulmonary hypertension. Kumar, Rahul Black, Stephen M Fratz, Sohrab Fineman, Jeffrey R. Bertero, Thomas Lu, Yu Annis, Sofia Hale, Andrew Bhat, Balkrishen Saggar, Rajan Saggar, Rajeev Wallace, W.Qing Lu recent focus is on mitochondrial functions on pulmonary endothelial cells metabolism in PAH, inflammasome activation and barrier disruption in acute lung injury. These techniques include animal model surgery, tissue, and cell culture, using EPR to measure superoxide levels in cells and tissue, fluorescent microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy for cell imaging of apoptotic and autophagic cellular pathology examinations, as well as small animal behavior models and evaluations. Qing Lu has been developing ongoing techniques to elucidate the mechanisms of apoptosis and autophagy in pulmonary hypertension and hypoxia ischemic brain injury. He completed postdoctoral training in School of Medicine in Wayne State University and Medical College of Georgia. degree from Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden. Qing Lu received his MD in Shandong Medical College, China, and Ph.D. Qing Lu is Research Associate Professor in the Robert Stempel College of Public Health and Social Work at Florida International University. Her research works have been published in various journals, including Nature Communications, Nano Letters, ACS Nano, ACS Photonics, Nano Energy, and Science.Dr. Lu received several awards from Taiwan, including the 56th Taiwan Ten Outstanding Young Persons (2018), Career Development Award (2018), Youth Optical Engineering Medal of Taiwan Photonics Society (2020). She has been recognized internationally she was selected to be one of the SPIE Women in Optics Planner in 2021. Lu is currently an Associate Editor for OSA Continuum and Advanced Photonics. She served as a committee member for various international conferences (SPIE O+P, SSDM, iSPN, OSA AP). She served as Symposium Lead Organizer for plasmonic symposiums at the GNP (2019), MRS Fall (20), META (2020), SPIE O+P (2021), CLEO Pacific (2022). She serves as a referee for numerous prestigious journals and a chair, co-chair, and committee for international symposiums. Moreover, she actively participates in the activities and services in scientific professional societies she is a member of MRS, SPIE, and OSA. Lu has garnered over 1600 citations for a body of work over 39 peer-reviewed journal articles and presented in many prestigious conferences. Her research interests are within an interdisciplinary field of active plasmonics/nanophotonics, focusing on plasmonic nanodevices to investigate harvesting, generating, and manipulating light at the nanoscale. She is a materials physicist with expertise in the fields of active plasmonics, nanophotonics, and metamaterials. Lu is currently an Assistant Research Fellow in the Research Center for Applied Sciences at Academia Sinica and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics at National Taiwan University. Harry Atwater’s research group at California Institute of Technology (Caltech), USA. From 2015 to 2017, she held a Postdoctoral position in Prof. degree in Physics from the National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan, in 2013.
