Dr. Tony Hu is a Professor in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Biomedical Engineering, and Microbiology at Tulane University. He is also the Weatherhead Presidential Chair in Biotechnology Innovation, founding Director of the Center for Intelligent Molecular Diagnostics at Tulane School of Medicine and the fellows of National Academy Inventors (NAI), American Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE) and International Academy of Medical and Biological Engineering (IAMBE). His inventions are intended to serve as a model for the analysis of similar characteristics of infectious and malignant diseases to facilitate the development of a full spectrum of diagnostic, prognostic and treatment evaluation assays, and re-define the diagnostic criteria to differentiate disease stages using molecular tests as a long-term goal. With over 160 publications and 30 patents (14 licensed globally), his technologies have earned FDA Breakthrough Device status and shaped real-world clinical practice. His work exemplifies ADLM’s mission by enabling accessible, high-precision diagnostics to advance global health equity.
