BIOGRAPHY:
Dr. Guo received his Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Connecticut. Presently he is working as Associate Professor and Director of NMR facility at Centre for Drug Discovery in the NorthEastern University, USA. His expertise is in the area of drug discovery using biophysical techniques including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and computer modeling. He has been studying the interactions of drug molecules with membranes and the mechanism by which these molecules are transported across the blood brain barrier. Currently, his research focuses on the endocannabinoid system with the emphasis on developing novel molecular probes and potential therapeutics for treating pain, substance abuse and other disorders.
RESEARCH INTERESTS:
• Fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs) as potential drug targets for modulating endocannabinoid levels in the brain
• Structural determinants of cannabinoid receptors interacting with G-proteins
• Mechanism of drug transport across cell membranes
