Bijie Ren
Visiting Instructor, Radiation Oncology - Radiation Physics
BioBijie Ren is a quantitative biologist as well as a pro bono academic advisor for the SATORI Institute for Complexity and Emergence (SICE). Inspired by electrical engineering and synthetic biology courses at MIT, he developed a profound interest in integrating digital logic into synthetic biotechnology. He earned his Ph.D. in Quantitative Biology from UC San Diego and was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Carnegie Institution for Science at Stanford University. His expertise lies at the intersection of AI and synthetic biology, built a high throughput cellOS to quickly Decode-Design-Recode novel species, with a specific focus on engineering microalgae to foster a better ocean ecosystem, discovery of anti-aging chemicals/peptides with new technology and real-world ground-truth data generation for virtual cell training and AlphaFold improvement. The whole pipeline can quickly help scientists to discover novel protein targets involved in aging process, design new chemical/peptide to target on these proteins and validate their effect in the wet lab to see if these molecules can extend single cell life span. The ingredients can be used for cosmetic, cosemtic injection, healthcare food and pharmacy sequentially. And with powerful cell factory and new synbio technology, he can reduce the R&D and manufacture cost by log scale.
In his advisory role at SICE, he also collaborated with distinguished faculties from top universities to initiate local "Labrary", aiming to empower young students to succeed in both academia and industry. -
Chenchen Ren
Affiliate, Central Mgmt-Misc AR
BioChenchen Ren is a postdoctoral research fellow working with Dr. Lorenzo Rosa at the Carnegie Institution for Science at Stanford. Her research focuses on sustainable agricultural strategies to ensure food security while reducing environmental impacts. She examines agriculture from multiple perspectives, including climate change, crop diversity, farm size, and population aging. Chenchen earned her Ph.D. in Land Resource Management from Zhejiang University, where her dissertation explored the role of farm size in agricultural sustainability, particularly in the context of an aging population. Her postdoctoral research focuses on climate adaptation in agriculture, specifically the interactions between water and nitrogen management. Through her work, she aims to develop innovative adaptation strategies and climate resilience solutions to support global food security, especially in regions vulnerable to climate change.
