Xin Gu, PhD
Principal Investigator

Assistant Professor of Cancer Biology (Dana-Farber Cancer Institute)
​Assistant Professor of Cell Biology (Harvard Medical School)


Xin Gu, Ph.D., joined Harvard Medical School and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in 2024. She received her Bachelor of Science degree in Biology at Peking University, then obtained her Ph.D. in Biology at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She performed postdoctoral work in the Department of Neurobiology at Harvard Medical School. Xin loves mysterious cellular and organismal phenotypes, and is excited about elucidating underlying novel mechanisms. Her career goal involves two folds: making rigorous and creative scientific discoveries & nurturing next-generation scientists!
