Professor Hongying Sha received her B.S. degree in Biology from East China Normal University in 1991 and M.S. degree in Cell Biology from Life Sciences Institute, East China Normal University in 2004. She obtained her Ph.D. degree in developmental biology from Life Sciences Institute, Tongji University in 2007. She had her postdoctoral training in neurosurgery of Huashan Hospital, Fudan University, majored in “Directed differentiation of embryonic stem cells into neural lineage cells” (2007-2009). Since she joined the faculty of National Key Laboratory of Medical Neurobiology, Fudan University in 2009. she has been focusing on the research of neurobiology, stem cells research and reproductive genetics. She invented a new technique of polar body genome transfer for preventing inherited mtDNA disease, which was published on CELL in 2014 and was selected as one of the “China’s top 10 scientific events” in 2014. She has received “Fudan University's Female Innovation Award” and “Excellent undergraduate tutor of Fudan University” for her achievements in research and teaching.
