Summary
Meishan Wu is a pharmaceutical scientist and chemical engineer with nine years of research and teaching experience, currently working at the FDA after completing a PhD at Lehigh University. Her doctoral work advanced antibiotic delivery using bacterial outer membrane vesicles, combining spectroscopy and mass spectrometry to optimize loading efficiency and characterize nanocarrier properties. She has a strong foundation in both experimental and computational approaches from prior undergraduate research on porin transport and mass/energy balance instruction. Meishan also brings interdisciplinary breadth from dual bachelor’s degrees in Chemical Engineering and Classics, reflecting analytical rigor and nuanced communication skills. She collaborates regularly with faculty and peers to evaluate antibacterial activity and biocompatibility, aiming to translate bench innovations toward solutions for antibiotic resistance. Based in Silver Spring, MD, she pairs deep lab expertise with regulatory exposure at the FDA, positioning her to bridge discovery and translational impact.
