Bringing R&D closer to human biology
Human organoid models connect efficacy, safety, mechanism and tumor-immune research. Our Nanjing team runs the studies, with project support from Shanghai and Philadelphia.
Core leadership
Organoid science for drug development
The team combines experience in target discovery, functional genomics, ALI organoids, tumor biology, clinical pharmacology and project operations to guide model selection, study design and result interpretation.

Turning complex human biology into evidence for drug development
TRiC — Translational Research in Complex Biology
We use human organoids, model QC and multimodal assays to compare candidates, investigate mechanism and plan follow-on studies.
Platform, quality and delivery
From peer-reviewed science to reliable project delivery
01
Peer-reviewed ALI and PDO 2.0 research
Chief Scientist & Chief Technology Officer, TRiCBIO | Co-developer of ALI tumor-immune organoid technology
Scientist profile ↗02Quality & evidence
Model quality is assessed through morphology, markers and functional readouts, with methods, results and data sources documented in the study record.
Quality and delivery principles ↗03Global collaboration
Nanjing, Shanghai (China) · Philadelphia, PA (US)
Teams in Nanjing, Shanghai and Philadelphia support global clients across scientific discussion, study design and project coordination.

One platform, flexible ways to work together
Start with a contract study, models and products, custom development or scientific collaboration—then add assays, mechanism studies and translational work as the program advances.
PROJECT SERVICES
Contract research
Combine models, treatment conditions and assay endpoints around efficacy, safety, immune context and mechanism.
See R&D study services ↗MODELS & PRODUCTSModels, reagents and support
Start with established models, culture and assay reagents, with technical support or a TRiCBIO-run study when needed.
Browse models and products ↗CUSTOM DEVELOPMENTCustom models and methods
Develop models and methods around specific samples, disease mechanisms or assay endpoints.
Plan custom development ↗SCIENTIFIC COLLABORATIONCollaborative research
Bring program design, model development, multimodal assays and data delivery into one collaboration.
Discuss a research collaboration ↗R&D and project execution
The people and R&D environment behind each study
Client engagement, scientific planning, laboratory execution and result interpretation are coordinated across disciplines. The Nanjing R&D center performs the primary organoid culture, sample-processing and multimodal assay work.
THE TEAMOur team | September 2026
Work directly with the scientific and project teams
Scientific, laboratory and project teams work together from initial discussion and model selection through study execution and result interpretation.

Locations & collaboration
Nanjing-led R&D with global project support
The three locations connect client discussions and project coordination with Nanjing-based R&D execution. For visits, study materials or cross-region coordination, our team will outline practical next steps during the initial discussion.
Nanjing
Core R&D and laboratory executionLeads organoid model development, drug screening, functional validation, multimodal assays and primary laboratory execution.
Shanghai
Client engagement and regional collaborationWorks with clients in China on project discussion, scientific coordination and translational collaboration, in close coordination with the Nanjing R&D team.
Philadelphia, PA
International client engagement & project coordinationSupports scientific discussion, study design and cross-regional coordination for international clients. Primary laboratory work is led by the Nanjing R&D team.
