RGC Senior Research Fellow Scheme

Biography

Professor in the School of Biological Sciences at The University of Hong Kong (HKU)
Associate Vice-President (Research), HKU
Director (Interim) of the School of Biological Sciences, HKU
Director (Interim) of the Dr. Li Dak Sum Research Centre, HKU
Research focuses on signal transduction in cancer, with discovery especially in cell adhesion dynamics pertinent to cancer development and metastasis
SRFS project — to shift the current paradigm by employing a dynamic setting to dissect the glyco-repertoire necessary for metastatic colonization, findings of which will aid in actionable patient stratification and highly targeted immune-oncology theranostics
Awards and Honours:
