Zhou Lab Members
Dr. Zhengjie Zhou is an Assistant Professor in the Center for inflammation & Lung Research (CILR) at the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University, with expertise in nanomedicine, cell biology, and translational medicine. His research focuses on developing advanced delivery platforms to modulate cell-specific signaling pathways involved in inflammation and disease, particularly in the lung and vasculature. He has contributed to innovative strategies for endothelial-drived cardiovascular and lung injury treatments, and explored the therapeutic potential of various delivery systems. Zhengjie’s broader interests lie in applyings interdisciplinary technologies to address critical challenges in precision medicine and inflammatory lung diseases. Zhengjie completed his postdoctoral work at University of Chicago in 2025 and then started his independent faculty job at Temple University. He is the recipient of 2023 NIH Pathway to Independence Award.
