Chung-Pu (Paul) Wu  (吳宗圃)

Biography

Chung-Pu (Paul) Wu is Professor of Pharmacology at Chang Gung University, one of the leading research universities in Taiwan. Wu earned his undergraduate degrees (with First Class Honours) and Master of Science (M.Sc.) degree at the University of Cape Town, RSA, discovering novel antimalarial drugs using drug screening platforms and combinatorial chemistry. Dr. Wu obtained his Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge, United Kingdom, and received his postdoctoral training at the National Cancer Institute, NIH, USA. Dr. Wu's current research focuses on understanding the role of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) drug transporters in the development of multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer patients. He also works on designing novel inhibitors of human ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein; MDR1) and ABCG2 (BCRP; MXR), as well as evaluating new therapeutic strategies to resensitize multidrug-resistant cancer cells to chemotherapeutic agents.
