Rong Chao, Ph.D.& MD, is an Associate Professor and Master's Supervisor in the Department of Pathology and Pathophysiology at the Suzhou
Medical College of Soochow University. His primary focus lies in teaching and research in basic pathology, as well as diagnostic work in
toxicologic pathology. He earned his Master of Science and Ph.D. degrees from Heidelberg University in Germany in 2014 and 2018,
respectively. From June 2018 to October 2019, he conducted postdoctoral research in the Department of Head and Neck Surgery at the
Heidelberg University Hospital. His research interests encompass basic and clinical translational oncology; the molecular mechanisms
underlying therapeutic resistance and immune evasion in HPV-related malignancies; the construction of clinical prognostic risk prediction
models for cancer patients based on multi-omics data; the development of molecular diagnostic pathology techniques for early-stage
disease; and the utilization of 3D organoid culture models for tumor tissues. He has published 12 articles in international academic journals
—including 《npj Precision Oncology》, 《British Journal of Cancer》, 《Stem Cell Research & Therapy》, and 《Cellular Signalling》—
serving as either the first or corresponding author. Additionally, he serves as a reviewer for academic journals such as
*Experimental Hematology & Oncology*, *Biomarker Research*, *Cellular Oncology*, *BMC Oral Health*, *Journal of Cancer*, and
*Mammalian Genome*. He is a member of the European Association for Cancer Research, a committee member of the
Toxicologic Pathology Committee under the Chinese Society of Toxicology, and a professional member of the Chinese
Anti-Cancer Association. He has participated in numerous research initiatives, including a sub-project on head and neck oncology
funded by the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centres and a General Program funded by the National Natural Science
Foundation of China (NSFC). Furthermore, he has led several independent projects, including a Young Scientists Fund project from
the NSFC, a Young Scientists Fund project from the Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Province, and a General Program for
Natural Science Research in Jiangsu Higher Education Institutions. In 2020, he was selected for the Double Innovation Plan
(Shuangchuang Plan) of Jiangsu Province under the Double Innovation Doctor category for graduates of world-renowned universities.
