معرفی
Dr. Zhe Yang is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the School of Biomedical Sciences, The University of Queensland, specializing in protein trafficking mechanisms and their roles in disease. His research spans molecular biology, neuroscience, and cell biology, with a focus on retromer complex functions in neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson’s disease and pathogen interactions such as Salmonella invasion. He holds a PhD from UQ and has contributed to 22 journal articles.
Research Interests:
- Protein Trafficking in Neurodegenerative Diseases
- Retromer Complex Function
- Endosomal Transport Dynamics
- Salmonella Effector Mechanisms
- Lysosomal Activity Regulation
- Adipocyte Differentiation
Publications: His 15 most recent works (2025–2016) highlight his expertise in retromer-mediated cargo sorting, phosphoinositide binding, and disease-related trafficking disruptions. Key themes include Parkinson’s pathology, bacterial pathogenesis, and metabolic regulation.
Supervision: Dr. Yang serves as an associate advisor for postgraduate research projects, focusing on retromer-associated proteins, adiponectin secretion, and endosomal pathways. His supervisees include students in biomedical sciences and related fields.
