  • Xuchao Lyu

    Xuchao Lyu

    Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology

    BioDr. XuchaoLyu (Lv) reveived his bachelor's degree in biology and chemistry from Jilin University, China in 2011. He completed his Ph.D. in metabolism disease at Tsinghua University in 2019. He worked with Peng Li to study the mechanism of lipid droplet growth. He uncovered the unique lipid-permeable condensate that allows lipid transfer which is formed through 2D phase separation on the phospholipid membrane. Xuchao is currently a postdoc in Jonathan Long's lab at Stanford University. He is studying the secreted factors from various tissues during exercise. Outside of the lab, he enjoys eating and cooking.

  • Morgan Mann

    Morgan Mann

    Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology

    BioMorgan W. Mann, PhD, is a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford University and clinical chemistry DABCC fellow at the University of California – San Francisco (UCSF). His personal and professional interests involve the development of novel clinical assays to streamline medical diagnostics and address emerging challenges to our healthcare systems. Prior to his joint positions at Stanford and UCSF, Morgan earned his PhD in Cellular and Molecular Pathology at the University of Wisconsin – Madison, where he applied mass spectrometry-based proteomics to study innate inflammation signaling pathways and viral protein structure in the context of airway infection. He received dual bachelor’s degrees in Biochemistry and Mathematics from the University of Oklahoma.

  • Solene Moulin

    Solene Moulin

    Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology

    BioI am a very curious person who likes to understand how things work and I love to contribute to new discoveries that will help to cope with tomorrow’s challenges. After my studies at the Ecole Normale Supérieure Ulm, I got specialized in plant science. I am interested in this research field because plants are critical for environment as well as for food and bio-energy production. In 2016, I joined CEA Cadarache for my PhD which led me to participate in a research program on hydrocarbon synthesis in algae. I really liked this project which was focusing on both reaching a bio-based production of hydrocarbons for fuel production and deciphering of the hydrocarbon synthesis pathway in algae. I have been leading research to assess the occurrence of this pathway in the different types of eukaryotic algae, its evolutionary history and its relevance for algal physiology. I am now going to study another evolutionary history that has led to a symbiosis between a diatom and a N-fixing cyanobacteria, the latest being on its way to become an organelle. Understanding the physiological relationship between the diatom and the cyanobacteria will help understanding nitrogen cycle and could lead to major innovations in farming.
