金真英教授和課題組詳細：

Department of Biomedical Sciences, City University of Hong Kong ( QS world rank 53)
Professor Kim has long studied the regulatory mechanism of circadian clocks and neurodegeneration with mouse models. She has published fascinating stories in cell reports, FEBS journal, iScience, PNAS, molecular cell, nature neuroscience, etc.

The research group has long been committed to mouse models of neurodegeneration and demyelination (brain pathologies), and disrupted circadian clocks. circadian clocks, endogenous oscillators, generate daily rhythms in various cellular processes and behavior.A growing body of evidence has shown abnormal circadian rhythms such as altered sleep and dysregulation of hormone levels in patients with brain disorders, like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.

However, little is known about the underlying mechanisms. our mission is to understand the physiological functions of circadian clocks in the brain and how circadian clocks are involved in brain pathologies and repair systems.

The ultimate goals are finding novel therapeutic targets to modulate circadian clocks to treat/prevent brain pathologies and design advanced treatment strategies based on circadian rhythms.

香港科技大學 劉振課題組 博士博士後招生 中心粒和纖毛結構與(yu) 功能 超分辨熒光成像

導師介紹:

Dr Zhen LIU is an assistant professor of the Division of Life Science, at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. He finished his Ph.D. (biophysics) training at Peking University in 2015 and postdoctoral training at the University of Toronto and the Hospital for Sick Children in 2021.

He joined HKUST in 2021 and his research focuses on applying super-resolution fluorescence microscopy to study the tiny cellular organelles--centrosome and cilia-- in the context of human diseases such as microcephaly and ciliopathy, using samples directly from patients (Gregory Costain*, Zhen Liu*, American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine (IF 30.5). 2022; Liu et al, Science Translational Medicine, 2020; Liu*, Nguyen*, et al, Developmental cell, 2020; Nguyen*, Liu*, et al, Developmental cell, 2020). 

項目組介紹：

The Liu lab (https://www.zhenliulaboratory.com)is now actively seeking highly motivated and enthusiastic PGs and postdocs to join the lab. His lab has strong expertise in super-resolution microscopy and gene editing with an interest in airway diseases led by cilia defects.

With the equipped state-of-the-art technologies, trainees in Liu lab explore the mechanism of human diseases and get full training in biophysics, molecular biology and cell biology.

The Liu lab provides you with a platform for your excellence, preparing you ready for your next stage. 

招生要求：

 PG and postdoctoral applicants should have a bachelor’s/master’s degree and Ph.D. degree accordingly in cell biology, biophysics or all other related disciplines.

For postdoctoral applicants, proficiency in cell culturing, and shRNA/CRISPR gene manipulations are expected. Experience in fluorescence microscopy/super-resolution microscopy would be an advantage but not mandatory.

The applicant should also be able to communicate effectively in English and have the ability to work both independently and as a part of a team.

Inquiries and applications should be addressed to:zhenliu@ust.hk

with necessary supporting materials such as CV, transcripts (PG), publications (research fellow) and contact information for 3 referees.

Eligible candidates will be arranged for interviews as soon as possible. 

獎學金：

Applicants are encouraged to apply for fellowships such as the RGC postdoctoral fellowship or HKUST IAS postdoctoral fellowship with Dr. Liu’s help to boost his/her income:
