2023

July 2023: CHE 400/600 [Polymer Chemistry and Polymeric Drug Delivery Systems] will be offered again in fall 2023. Organic chemistry knowledge is required, but no prior knowledge of polymers or biochemistry is needed. Sign up now to explore polymer chemistry and its biomedical applications. June 2023: Our first manuscript has been accepted by JACS. Congratulations to Xuancheng Fu (postdoc) and Boyu Frank Zhu (undergraduate)! We thank the reviewers and the editor for their valuable feedback that greatly improved our manuscript. May 2023: The Hu Lab is selected to become an affiliate member of the Upstate Cancer Center Research Program (CCRP). We look forward to collaborative research opportunities at CCRP. ​May 2023: 2nd-year Ph.D. student Cijun Zhang joined the Hu Group. Welcome!

2022

​Dec 2022: Welcome to our new first-year graduate students – MD. Ibrahim Khalilullah and Bowen Xu. Nov 2022: Welcome to our new postdoc Xuancheng Fu. Dr. Fu received his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (Institute of Chemistry). Oct 2022: Our application for the SOURCE Research Assistant Faculty Grant has been selected! We thank Syracuse University for supporting two undergraduate researchers in our lab. Undergraduates are welcome to contact Xiaoran about potential research opportunities in 2023 spring and summer. Aug 2022: Xiaoran will teach CHE 400/600 Polymer Chemistry and Polymeric Drug Delivery Systems in fall 2022. This course is offered to graduate and undergraduate students and covers topics ranging from polymer synthesis to lipid nanoparticles and mRNA vaccines. Aug 2022: The Xiaoran Hu Research Group starts at Syracuse University. Xiaoran is excited to join the faculty in the Department of Chemistry and the BioInspired Institute! Financial support from Syracuse University is gratefully acknowledged.
