"I highly recommend Dr. Wen as an outstanding principal investigator and mentor. She is extremely hardworking and deeply committed to both her research and the success of the laboratory. She puts tremendous effort into keeping the lab running smoothly and is always willing to support lab members when they encounter challenges, whether related to experiments, research planning, or day-to-day laboratory work.

One of her greatest strengths is her ability to think broadly and creatively. She encourages us to explore different possibilities rather than limiting ourselves to conventional approaches, and she often brings new perspectives to scientific problems. She is also very open to discussing new ideas and gives lab members the freedom to develop their own thinking and research directions.

Beyond her scientific leadership, she genuinely cares about the development of the people in her lab. She works hard to create a supportive and collaborative environment and is generous with her time, advice, and resources. Her dedication, creativity, and sense of responsibility have had a very positive impact on both the laboratory and the people working with her."

"Professor Jing Wen is an accomplished and innovative researcher whose work bridges immunotherapy, gene therapy, nanotechnology, and molecular drug delivery. Her research on overcoming the blood–brain barrier—particularly the development of platforms for delivering monoclonal antibodies, growth factors, and other therapeutics into the central nervous system—has important implications for treating brain tumors, neurodegenerative disorders, spinal cord injury, and HIV-related CNS disease. As a member of UCLA’s Cancer Molecular Imaging, Nanotechnology and Theranostics program and its Tumor Immunology and Immunotherapy program, she brings valuable interdisciplinary expertise to complex biomedical challenges. Her strong publication record, scientific rigor, and commitment to translating innovative research into potential therapeutic solutions make her a highly respected contributor to the academic and biomedical research communities."
