Ting Zhang, M.D., Ph.D.

Director of Consumables QC

Personal Statement Working as an M.D., I frequently felt the pain of not being able to help my patients. In particular in the field of immunology there is a tremendous gap between the theoretical knowledge base, and that what can be implemented in the clinic. I therefore feel excited to work for a company, CTL, that enables translational research. I started at CTL in the R&D department, and worked my way to head its Consumables QC Department. My mission is making sure that scientists all around the world have the best tools for immune monitoring.
