Research Interest: His research focuses on the studies of the lipid/cholesterol metabolic and signaling pathways in prostate cancer development and advanced progression; molecular targeting of prostate cancer; and oncogenic and tumor suppressive microRNA

Research Interest:  Currently Dr. Leiser is the head of the Laboratory for Oral Cancer Research and is supervising M.Sc. students in basic science research. Dr. Leiser specializes in surgical oncology and surgical dental rehabilitation in the maxillofacial region. The author of several scientific and clinical manuscripts in international peer-reviewed journals, he has actively participated as a lecturer in several international and national conferences in the basic sciences as well as at professional maxillofacial surgery and oncology conferences.

Research Interest: Related to the role of therapy with high-dose furosemide and small-volume hypertonic saline therapy and refractory heart failure and refractory ascites , the role of the salt load in the acute characterize and stratify patients with congestive heart failure after therapy with high doses of furosemide and small volumes of hypertonic saline,the atherosclerosis as inflammatory disease and characterization of the diabetic foot as risk markers cardiovascolare.Ulteriori interests are represented finally by Anderson-Fabry disease , and in particular of its role as risk factor of cryptogenic stroke over over which the search for new mutations in the gene for alpha- Galactosidase

Research Interest: Molecular characterization of brain tumor stem cells  Therapy development for brain tumors Phase I/II Clinical Trial for malignant brain tumorsMolecular mechanism of therapy resistance of brain tumors Genetic mechanism for cell fate decisions in neural stem cells

Research Interest: He is a Pediatric Nephrologist and a leading scientist in clinical studies in China especially for IgA nephropathy and nephritic syndrome in children. He also conducted basic research in regard to the investigation of the role of immunological aspects in kidney diseases including nephritic syndrome and diabetic nephropathy.

Research Interest: Dr Mei's research expertise is in biofilms and biomaterials. His recent research activities are mainly focused on the mechanism and prevention of bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation on dental materials.

He has measured the adhesion forces between living bacteria and orthodontic materials using atomic force microscopy at a nano-level, and decoupled the bacterial adhesion forces into specific and non-specific forces. In addition, he has investigated measures for preventing biofilm formation using quaternary ammonium compounds. He developed a novel contact-killing surface by incorporating quaternary ammonium compounds into composite resin and studied its efficacy of killing the adhered bacteria and its bio-safety for human cells.

His other interests include randomized controlled trials (RCT) and evidence-based dentistry. He has investigated clinical methods for enhancing oral hygiene in patients wearing fixed orthodontic appliances.
