简历
何永乐博士分别于1997年和1999年在香港科技大学获得生物化学学士和哲学硕士学位。并于2004年在香港大学内科学系获得博士学位。在加入香港理工大学之前,何博士曾在香港大学担任博士后,研究助理教授和科学主任。
何博士的临床前研究重点是主要围绕柏金逊症及其相关的多种神经系统疾病,包括使用体外和体内实验模型阐明与LRRK2突变相关的线粒体功能障碍和自噬受损的致病机制,以开发新的神经保护策略。除了自主研发的LRRK2突变小鼠模型外,他还开始製备柏金逊症患者来源的诱导多能干细胞作为疾病替代模型。此外,何博士还作为项目负责人与海洋污染国家重点实验室(SKLMP,CityU)合作研究新兴化学品(CECs)的环境风险。2015年他开发了一种新型的基于人类细胞的检测试剂盒,用于评估环境异雌激素和各种内分泌干扰化合物诱导的雌激素效应。这种新型检测採用了一种自主研发的蛋白标记作为试剂盒的主要检测成分。这项发明已在美国、欧洲和中国获得了专利。
何博士在著名国际期刊中发表了50多篇研究论文和邀请评论,包括《Autophagy》, 《npj Parkinson’s disease》, 《Translational Neurodegeneration》等。何博士作为PI / Co-I获得了HMRF和RGC / GRF的多项科研资助,并负责指导神经科学硕士和博士研究生的学习和实验室工作。此外,何博士还积极参与研究社区服务,被邀请担任一些著名期刊的编委、编委会成员和审稿人,包括《Nature Communications》、《Translational Neurodegeneration》、《Journal of Neurology》、《Brain and Behavior》以及《Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience》。
