Yanhui Xu received his B.S. (1995-1999) and Ph.D. (1999-2004) from Tsinghua University in Zihe Rao's lab, where he studied the mechanism of virus fusion. He went to Princeton University as a postdoctoral scholar in Yigong Shi's lab, where he studied the structural basis for assembly of protein phosphatase 2A holoenzymes. He moved to Fudan University in 2008 as a principal investigator. His research focuses on transcription regulation by using biochemistry, structural biology, and cutting-edge technologies.
