刘奋勇博士主要从事病毒学与抗病毒药物领域的研究,在国内外著名学术刊物共发表六十多篇学术论文和理论著作。研究成果在美国注册专利五项。现任美国国家健康研究院(NIH)基金委员会正式评委和美国癌症协会基金委员会正式评委。
2006年12月从美国加州引入江苏。到泰州市病毒研究所从事技术开发与服务工作,主要从事快速诊断禽流感病毒株的芯片产品的开发, 设计, 生产及销售。在最初两年试销和市场培育期内,每年将生产及售出至少20,000套人类芯片和20,000套动物芯片。预计今后几年内,每年将售出200,000套人类芯片和200,000套动物芯片。此外,帮助引进多名国内外知名专家担任研究所顾问。
擅长领域
医院药房不仅是医院医疗服务的重要窗口,也是医院重要的经济部门,而目前随着国家医疗制度的改革和医疗保险制度的出台,各级医院面临激烈的竞争。
医院药房应做到以下几点制定完善的规章制度、改善药房的工作环境、加强药房的硬件设施、以患者为中心、医院药学管理微机化、注重人才培养提高药学人员素质、接受社会监督,方能适应新形势,为医院整体的生存和发展做贡献。
研究成果
在甲型H1N1流感肆虐的时刻,中国医药城的入园企业-泰州亲和力生物技术有限公司自主研发的流感病毒检测芯片,已顺利通过省药监局医疗器械生产条件许可证现场验收,该芯片可 在6小时内对甲型H1N1流感疑似病例进行确诊。 该病毒检测芯片由美国芝加哥大学博士、耶鲁大学博士后,美国加州大学柏克利分校公共卫生学院终身教授、比较生物化学学科主任刘奋勇研发。2008年1月,刘奋勇博士加盟中国医药城,注册了高新技术企业--泰州亲和力生物技术有限公司,建立了先进的分子生物学实验室、生物二级动物房和GMP芯片生产厂房,主要从事严重危害人类健康的病毒性疾病的快速诊断、病原分子生物学及药物防治研究。经过近一年的努力,企业研制出了 "世界第一"也是"世界唯一"的流感病毒诊断生物芯片。
该芯片采用国际上最新的基因芯片技术,攻克了探针设计、信号放大、数据分析等一系列技术难关,具备快速便捷、高通量、一块芯片分型检测多种病毒等特点,能把流感诊断时间从过去的几天缩短为几个小时,像人源、禽源等多种属来源流感病毒2个小时内即可检测,时下肆虐的甲型H1N1流感6小时内就可检测确诊。
在检测甲型H1N1流感病毒时,只需对可疑患者鼻或咽拭子标本 (用医用棉签从人体鼻或咽部蘸取少量分泌物)、漱口水进行检测。芯片具有灵敏度高、特异性强、检测速度快、样本前处理相对简单、价格低、携带方便等优点,填补了国际同行业空白。
折叠编辑本段人物贡献 美国芝加哥大学博士、耶鲁大学博士后;美国加州大学柏克利分校公共卫生学院终身教授、比较生物化学学科主任;病毒学、生物化学方面的领军人才,研究成果在美国注册五项专利。
拥有这么多令人咋舌头衔的人,叫刘奋勇,泰州市病毒研究所所长,"江苏省高层次创业创新人才引进计划"首批引进人才。 在泰州,他仅用一年多时间,就研究出世界上第一块禽流感诊断生物芯片,把禽流感诊断时间从过去的7天缩短为2小时以内,为抢救病人赢得了时间。
当有专家指出这项新技术是世界第一时,他笑了:"这不仅是世界第一,而且是世界唯一。"这个世界唯一,采用了国际上最新的基因芯片技术,攻克了探针设计、信号放大、数据分析等一系列技术难关,具备快速便捷、高通量、一块芯片上分型检测多种病毒等三大特点,对指导临床诊疗和预防监测流感、保障公共安全提供了强有力的技术支撑。
在泰州医药园,刘奋勇针对医药产品研发周期长的特点,在较短时间内建立了完善的科技创新平台,研究所注册了中美合资的高新技术企业--泰州亲和力生物技术有限公司,建立了先进的分子生物学实验室、生物安全二级动物房和GMP芯片生产厂房,还先后招聘了包括博士、硕士和教授在内15名高层次人才,专业涵盖生物化学、病毒学、免疫学和分子生物学等领域,紧盯学科的国际发展前沿,取得一系列技术突破和阶段性成果。 "中国医药城是我事业的一个新起点,这里不仅有创业最佳的平台,优厚的人才政策,周到细致的服务,更有家一般的温暖。"刘奋勇说,他将努力创造更多的"世界第一、世界唯一"来回报江苏,为祖国的发展尽心尽力
