How to apply

Send your materials

CV, transcript, and a short statement of research interests to [email protected]. 链接示例

Initial conversation

A short call to talk through your background and the overlap with what the group is working on.

Technical discussion

A deeper conversation with current group members, usually built around a paper — yours or one we pick together.

Lab visit

Come visit us at the Institute of Chemical Biology, Shenzhen Bay Laboratory. Remote visits are also fine if travel is impractical.

Life in the lab

What it's like here

A mid-sized group with a complete chemical-biology platform. We prefer to finish a story over starting a new one.

A complete chemical-biology toolkit

The group has molecular synthesis, chemical-biology probes, bioimaging, and mass-spectrometry platforms in house, so new members can ramp up quickly.

Platform

Tools and biology, side by side

We build new tools and use them to answer biological questions — both writing and finishing the story.

Tools + biology

Close mentorship

Weekly one-on-ones, and a senior student or postdoc to help with the first stretch in the lab.

Mentorship

Cross-disciplinary collaboration

Ongoing collaborations with groups at Shenzhen Bay Laboratory, PKU Shenzhen, and other institutions. Cross-disciplinary projects are encouraged.
