Host: Prof. ZHANG Chao

Time: 10:00am-11:30am, 10th JUNE, 2015

Venue: Room 1102, Medical Building

Intro:Focused on methodologies for fluorescence imaging and optogenetical manipulation of living cells, and their applications in discoveries and biotechnologies:

• Light switchable proteins and optogenetics
• Genetically encoded sensors for cellular metabolites and life activities
• Small molecular fluorescent probes for specific labeling and imaging of biological molecules
• High content, high throughput genetic and drug screening
• Synthetic biology, protein expression systems and bio-manufacturing technologies
