Dr. Chris Lu and I started to know each other when we played table tennis in Zhangjiang. Back then, he played on behalf of Novartis and we appreciated each other’s skills. I didn’t expect this outstanding scientist to have such great talent in sports. After Dr. Lu started his own business, I joined his team and we worked side by side. What we understand from each other is beyond table tennis skills. We worked hard together to create this innovative biotech company from scratch, while sharing the joy of each research breakthrough.

I am the a No.003 employee of Laekna Therapeutics and was a colleague of Dr. Chris Lu when we were at Novartis. Dr. Lu has a very good reputation throughout in the industry, with known for his top research capabilities, leadership and integrity. When I learned that he decided to start up a business, I did not hesitate to join him

The bond between Laekna and I started from a chat in a cafe. It was an informal interview, and I was greatly impressed by this innovative company. The warm and vibrant atmosphere touched me a lot.

At Laekna, everyone calls her “Big Brother ''. But actually, Candice is a young, elite professional who returned to China after graduating from a prestigious school overseas, and has previously worked with foreign and Chinese Fortune 500 companies. She has been with Laekna for more than one year.
