Dr. Wei Xiao is a Professor in the Department of Biochemistry, Microbiology & Immunology at the University of Saskatchewan's College of Medicine. His research focuses on DNA damage tolerance, ubiquitination (particularly K63-linked polyubiquitination), and mutagenesis, with implications for cancer biology and stress responses. He employs yeast, plant, and mammalian models to study genomic stability mechanisms.
Dr. Xiao's key research areas include:
- Molecular mechanisms of DNA repair and translesion synthesis
- Ubc13-UEV complex functions in signal transduction
- Genetic toxicology and stress-induced mutagenesis
- Plant DNA damage responses and ubiquitination pathways
- Yeast metabolic engineering for bioethanol production
He has received notable awards, including:
- University of Saskatchewan Distinguished Researcher of the Year (2008)
- College of Medicine Graduate Student Society Supervisor of the Year (2007)
- Biographee in Canadian Who's Who (since 1996)
Dr. Xiao actively mentors graduate students and collaborates globally, with former training at Harvard University.
