Biography
MIN YUE, Professor, FAO/WHO rosters of experts, PPLI fellow
Hangzhou Institute for Advanced Study, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Dr. Min Yue received his bachelor of veterinary medicine degree in 2005 from Huazhong Agricultural University and continued his Ph.D. in the study of the genomics and pathogenesis of Haemophilus parasuis. After completing the training in 2010, he joined Prof. Dieter Schifferli's lab at the University of Pennsylvania as a postdoc and then as a research associate in 2014, with his main area of research being Salmonella and Yersinia pestis. In Feb 2017, he went back to his own country and established as the principal investigator at Zhejiang University, Hangzhou. Now, he continues his work on Salmonella at the Hangzhou Institute for Advanced Study, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences. His current interest lies in applying an integrative “Omics” approach to understand the functional diversity of bacterial virulence factors and mechanisms, particularly the impact of population genomics on the diversity and evolution of Salmonella pathogenesis. He is also interested in adopting the above knowledge in creating and developing predictive, preventive, or therapeutic measures. He served as FAO/WHO rosters of experts for food safety and was elected Pandemic Prevention Leadership Initiative (PPLI) fellow. He is also the editorial board member or editor for numerous journals, including PLoS Pathog, mSystems, mLife, hLife, Foodborne Pathog Dis, Microorganisms, Animal Dis. As a leading corresponding author, he has published over 80 peer-reviewed papers in high-impact journals. The work is well cited with ~4000, an h-index of 35, and selected as one of the World's Top 2% Scientists (2022, 2023). He also submitted 8 patents (1 PCT) and commercialized probiotic products for the animal industry. Research interests
Zoonotic pathogens, such as Salmonella, employ a repertoire of specific virulence factors and evolve various strategies to establish infection and cause disease. The evolving next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology, as well as the accumulation of genome data, has reshaped the ways of conducting research, raising the expectation of better control of infectious diseases. I am interested in applying an integrative “Omics” approach to understand the functional diversity of bacterial virulence factors and mechanisms, particularly the impact of population genomics on the diversity and evolution of Salmonella pathogenesis and antimicrobial resistance. I am also interested in adopting the above knowledge in the creation and development of predictive, preventive, or therapeutic measures against infectious diseases for improving food safety.
