Top SchoolJan Lui is an Associate Director at BioMarin leading external collaborations and project teams to advance therapies for rare neurodevelopmental genetic disorders. With 14 years of experience and a PhD from UCSF plus postdoctoral training at Stanford, he bridges deep academic expertise in neocortical development and circuit function with pragmatic drug-program leadership. He has steered neuroscience externalization efforts, aligning academic and industry partners to accelerate translational pipelines from mouse and human neurobiology to therapeutic candidates. A K01 career-development award recipient and long-time contributor to high-impact labs (Luo, Kriegstein), he combines rigorous experimental insight with strategic program management. Based in San Francisco, he is adept at translating complex mechanistic science into actionable development plans and stakeholder-ready data packages.
