Liang Zhao's Biography



Liang Zhao, Associate Professor, Beijing University of Technology

Dr. Zhao is currently associate professor in Chemical Department, Beijing University of Technology. Before that, he worked for University of Science and Technology Beijing. His research interests mainly focused on recapitulating tumor and important organs with new microfluidic device, which can facilitate in vitro assay with precise spatial and temporal controlling of cells, spheroids, and organoids. Also, he is interest about developing new microfluidic tools for biomedical research with 3D printing fabrication and integration. He is the associate editor of the journal Heliyon as well.

Traditional methods for CTCs capture and analysis are usually utilize speci?c antibody to isolate CTCs from periphery blood. However, some circulating tumor cells that are undergoing epithelia-mesenchymal transformation may lose its surface antigen which was speci?cally expressed in epithelial cells. Herein, we developed a micro?uidic device for capturing CTCs and analysis without bias from whole blood by negative depletion of red blood cells (RBCs) and white blood cells (WBCs) off-chip. The operation is ultimately easy and interested CTCs could be distinguished and retrieved for further molecular analysis.
