Dr Yuzhe Weng

Before I started my position at the University of Cambridge, I did my DPhil Pharmacology degree at the University of Oxford, focusing on the crosslink between the pathogenesis of intracellular pathogens and rare lysosomal storage disorders. Now I am a postdoc in Prof Ziad Mallat’s lab at the Department of Medicine to research the immune regulation in atherosclerosis.
