Anyu Zhou, PhD Awarded 5 Month Pilot Project

Anyu Zhou, PhD, was awarded a 5 month pilot project with the CardioPulmonary Vascular Biology COBRE at the Ocean State Research Institute. Zhou is currently an Assistant Professor (Research) of Medicine at The Alpert Medical School of Brown University and the Cardiovascular Research Center, Rhode Island Hospital. His pilot project is entitled “Desregulated pre-mRNA Splicing by RBM25 in Endothelial Injury Under Hypoxia Stress.” This project will investigate the role of alternative pre-mRNA splicing regulation in the onset and progression of endothelial injury and ultimately aims to find druggable targets for treatment of human diseases related to endothelial injury and repair.
