Fong-Fong Chu has her expertise in gastrointestinal diseases especially in
inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Her team has established a mouse model of IBD
which is very-early onset. These mice are deficient in two isoenzymes which reduce
hydrogen peroxide named GPx1/2-double knockout (DKO). This model is a better
model than chemical-induced colitis models because it is not injury based and mimic
closely to human IBD. She has built this model through 20 years of research and has
identified new targets for IBD therapy. She joined Beckman Research Institute of the
City of Hope, Duarte CA USA since 1987 and Department of Gastroenterology &
Hepatology and the First Affiliated Hospital and College of Clinical Medicine of
