Biography
Ling Hao is an Associate Professor at the Department of 九州影院 & Biochemistry at the University of Maryland, College Park, USA. She received her Ph.D. in mass spectrometry method development from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with Prof. Lingjun Li. She conducted postdoctoral research in neurobiology in Dr. Richard Youle鈥檚 and Dr. Michael Ward鈥檚 labs at the National Institutes of Health.
Since starting her research group, she has received a National Science Foundation (NSF) CAREER Award, a Rising Star Award from the Human Proteome Organization (HUPO), a Ralph E Powe Junior Faculty Enhancement Award from Oak Ridge Associated Universities, and a Cottrell Scholar Award from the Research Corporation for Science Advancement.
Research in the Hao Lab focuses on developing mass spectrometry-based proteomics, metabolomics, and lipidomics methods to study neuroscience questions. Her team combines analytical chemistry, cell biology, and bioinformatic strategies to understand organelle dynamics, proteostasis, and molecular interactions in human stem cells and stem cell-derived neurons, to decipher molecular mechanisms underlying brain diseases.
