  mentoring_philosophy: "I mainly focus on the self-motivation driven research. I will identify the students' motivation and motivate them more. I help and encourage students to pay attention to small details and put deep thoughts while performing experiments.  When students gain more understanding and skills, I challenge them to develop independent thoughts.   I also share my own experience. I create a safe environment in which mentees feel that is acceptable to fail and learn from their mistakes. "

  overall_research_project_description: 'Immune therapy has proven to be an effective method of targeting FAP overexpressing cells for lysis, especially in cancer research. By using engineered chimeric antigen receptors (CARs), patient immune cells can be programmed to target tumor and tumor- associated antigens, eliciting a strong inflammatory response that is difficult for tumors to suppress. T-cells engineered to express CARs that target FAP localize to the tumor microenvironment, destroying fibroblasts in the tumor stroma that mediate immune suppression and cause tumor- associated fibrosis.'
