Top SchoolYing Xiao is a Principal Investigator and stem cell biologist with over 20 years of biomedical research experience and 11 years in senior lab leadership, currently leading skin regeneration and Merkel cell biology programs at Zhejiang University. She has 16 first/corresponding author peer-reviewed papers, extensive hands-on expertise in transgenic animal models, in vivo pharmacology and GLP-style preclinical workflows, and a PhD in Pharmacology from the Shanghai Institute of Materia Medica. Her career includes significant translational work at the US National Cancer Institute—contributing to single-cell analyses and drug screening for Merkel cell carcinoma—and a track record mentoring junior scientists and postdocs. Known for combining rigorous molecular and in vivo approaches to stem cell and skin disease questions, she also brings practical drug-development insights such as pharmacokinetics, metabolism and toxicity assessment.
