Biography

After I obtained my medical degree from Tongji Medical College, China, I joined the graduate program at the University of British Columbia in 2002. Following my Ph.D., I moved to Seattle, WA to receive pathology residency and fellowship training at the University of Washington. I then spent one year at the University of Calgary as a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine in 2013 and finally came back to Vancouver in July 2014. I am currently an anatomical pathologist at the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at St. Paul's Hospital. I was appointed as a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, UBC in 2015.
