Yike Zhu

Hello! I am Yike. I have a BSc in Pharmacy from Zhejiang University, and obtained my PhD in Foo-Lab in 2021. My research interests include cardiac regeneration cardiomyocyte cell state regulation. Currently, I am working on the molecular mechanisms of cardiomyocyte dedifferentiation (CMDD) and screening small molecules promoting cardiac regeneration.

Outside the lab, I am interested in science communication, and I was a freelance scientific writer of several Chinese media on Wechat. I am also an amateur musician playing the Guzheng and Pipa, operating my own video channel. During festival seasons, my favorite way of celebration is baking. I am very proud of my recipe in Tiramisu and Mille Crepe!
