Wei Wei,
Assistant Professor, Department of Molecular and Medical Pharmacology
Dr. Wei Wei is an Assistant Professor in Department of Molecular & Medical Pharmacology at UCLA School of Medicine. He received his Ph.D. in Materials Science at California Institute of Technology under the supervision of Dr. James R. Heath. Wei's research interests include developing and employing a unique suite of single cell tools to cultivate new understanding and address significant questions in cancer research. Specifically, 1) Develop multi-omics single cell tools for interrogating the heterogeneous tumor cells and immune cells at multiple bimolecular levels. 2) Information theoretical and computational approaches for dissecting the high-dimensional single cell data with a particular focus on resolving tumor heterogeneity and dynamics of the signal transduction network for anticipating therapy resistance and identifying effective combination therapies. 3) Isolation, molecular characterization, and neoantigen identification of rare tumor cells in body fluids for cancer diagnosis and immunotherapy.
