Lichuan Gu
Shandong University
Professor, Shandong University, China.
Dr. Gu had obtained B.S. in Physics in 1995 and MSc in Physical Chemistry in 1998 from Shandong University, China. He had obtained Ph.D. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology in 2002 from Chinese Academy of Science and Postdoc in Molecular Biology in 2006 from Princeton University. His research focuses on understanding the molecular mechanism of bacterium biofilm formation and drug resistance by using structural biology, biochemistry or microbiology techniques. In the last few years, Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been used as a model system to systematically characterize many proteins involved in regulation of biofilm development.
