2026 XJTU Global Summer School (XJTISS)
Registration Notice: Rare Diseases of Developmental Origin and Translational Research
In the summer of 2026, the School of Basic Medical Sciences, Xi’an Jiaotong University, will host the Lecture Series on Rare Diseases of Developmental Origin and Translational Research from August 20 to 24, 2026. The lecture series will bring together distinguished experts from leading universities and research institutions in China, Japan, and Pakistan to deliver presentations on developmental-related rare diseases and translational research. The program will provide a comprehensive overview of the latest advances in disease discovery, molecular mechanisms, animal models, genome editing, regenerative medicine, and precision medicine.
The lecture series will be conducted entirely in English and is open to undergraduate students, graduate students, and international students. It aims to establish an international academic exchange platform, enabling young scholars to gain insights into the latest developments in biomedical sciences, broaden their global academic perspectives, and enhance their research and innovation capabilities.
Speakers
Prof. Long Guo, Professor and Ph.D. Supervisor, School of Basic Medical Sciences, Xi’an Jiaotong University. His research focuses on hereditary skeletal disorders and rare diseases, with particular interests in skeletal developmental abnormalities, disease animal models, and comparative medicine. He has discovered and named four novel human rare skeletal disorders, including spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia, Guo–Campeau type, which bears his surname. All four disorders have been included in the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) database.
