Biography

Fan got his Ph.D. from Fudan University, China, and he worked in Xunbin Wei’s lab to study cancer and immunology using biomedical optical imaging. Fan has participated in developing the home-made optical instrument – in vivo flow cytometer (IVFC), which enable non-invasive and real-time monitoring of circulating cells in vivo, and made it work in dual colors. He established high-metastatic orthotopic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) mouse model and monitored the dynamics of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) using our IVFC.
