Dr. Yuting Guan received her Ph. D degree in 2016 from the East China Normal University (ECNU), Shanghai, China. Upon her completion of Ph.D training, shewas trained as a postdoctoral researcherin University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA, USA from 2017 to 2021. She joined School of Life Sciences, ECNU,and became a principal investigator in 2022.


Dr. Guan’s research mainly focuses on the molecular mechanism of chronic kidney disease and acute kidney injury through integration of GWAS, high-throughput sequencing and CRISPR/Cas9 technology, and the development of new gene therapies targeted to kidney. Dr. Guan published articles in high-impact journals, such asNat Genet and Nat Commun
