Research Interests
Our group is principally interested in uncovering cellular processes and the underlying mechanisms that support the biological tube formation and tail regression during embryogenesis. We use marine animal (Ciona) notochord and Drosophila tracheal system as models to understand the morphogenetic signaling network on polarized vesicle trafficking, cytoskeletal organization, membrane biogenesis, and extracellular matrix dynamics during lumen formation and cell shape change.
Job and Contact
We are always looking for people with experience and interests in developmental biology, Cell biology, or biophysics to join us. If you are interested in working with us as a graduate student, postdoc or visiting scientist, please contact us for possible openings.
