Biographical Narrative
Dr. Han received her MD from Harbin Medical University, China.  She carried out doctoral studies on the detection of human T-cell leukemia virus type-1 in a human T-lyphoblastic lymphoma xenotransplant in nude mouse and an exploration of the mechanism of horizontal oncogenesis in the xenograft, obtaining her Ph.D.  She then carried out postdoctoral studies on gene targeting at the Institute of Genetics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, followed by research on the regulation of cytosolic phospholipase A2alpha (cPLA2alpha) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)-derived prostaglandin and related signaling pathways in liver cancer at the Department of Pathology of University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine.  She generated two novel transgenic mice with targeted expression of the cPLA2alpha and COX-2, respectively, in the liver and gained significant expertise in a variety of in vitro and iv vivo model systems for the study of liver cell biology and cancer.  In 2005 she was promoted as an assistant professor of pathology.  Since relocating to Tulane University in December 2009, she took an Associate Professor position in Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at School of Medicine where she continues her active research in hepatic carcinogenesis.
