Position Summary
The Chen Lab with the Michigan State University Department of Pediatrics and Human Development is currently recruiting postdoctoral Research Associates to augment our research program.
Today's technologies allow the profiling thousands of molecular features including proteins, mRNAs, and metabolites, all of which can contribute to disease development.
Finding one magic bullet from these thousands of features is a daunting task. Moreover, focusing only on a single feature does not fully utilize all the information generated from new omics technologies.
The Chen Lab has developed a systems approach that considers how drugs affect a disease gene expression signature, which is comprised of a set of up-/down-regulated disease genes.
This approach has led to the discovery of therapeutic candidates for seven indications including hepatocellular carcinoma (Gastroenterology, 2017), melanoma (Molecular Pharmacology, 2022), Alzheimer's disease (Nature Aging, 2021), Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2022), and SARS-CoV-2 (iScience, Moreover, we have discovered that the potency to reverse gene expression correlates with drug efficacy, providing strong evidence of using this approach in drug repurposing (Nature Communications, We have developed a drug-repurposing platform called OCTAD (Nature Protocols, 2021), allowing researchers to predict repurposed drug candidates for cancers and cancer subtypes.
Currently we are developing new AI approaches to support novel compound screening and lead optimization.Our recent conference papers demonstrated the feasibility through improving the training data quality (ICDM, 2020), pre-training graph neural network (KDD, 2021) and tree search based multi-objective optimization (KDD, 2022, Best Paper Award).
We aim to design novel compounds that could control cell lineage development, modulate the microenvironment, and treat cancer and aging.
