Lin, Jian-Da, 林建達, Ph.D. (Principle Investigator)

Dr. Jian-Da Lin received his Ph.D. in 2016 from Rutgers Biomedical and Health Sciences, U.S.A., where he discovered a distinct role of type III interferon (IFN), (i.e. IFN-λs), compared to type I IFNs in intestinal immunity to rotavirus infection. He did his postdoctoral research at NYU School of Medicine and performed multi-disciplinary research, mainly on macrophages, bioinformatics, mechanisms of atherosclerosis, and the study of immune variations in rewilding mice. He continues to establish cutting-edge techniques such as high-parameter FACS analysis and CITE-seq as a Staff Scientist at NIAID, National Institutes of Health (NIH) in 2020. Then he joined the Department of Biochemical Science and Technology as Assistant Professor at NTU College of Life Science in 2021.
