Yue Xu, PhD

I am an Instructor at Baylor College of Medicine since October 2025 and completed my UHN-PRiME postdoctoral fellowship in Bowen Li’s lab at the Leslie Dan Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Toronto. I was trained in medicinal chemistry, earning a Ph.D. from China Pharmaceutical University, and during my postdoctoral training I brought a computational perspective to experimental science, developing predictive models and analyses to guide synthesis and biological testing. My current work focuses on building a high-throughput screening platform using rational design to evaluate lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) for mRNA delivery.
