Biography
Prof. Terrence Lau received his PhD in biochemistry at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University and started his post-doctoral training at University of Pennsylvania (UPenn), Philadelphia, where he developed his interest in the structure/function relationship of RNA/protein complex and their functional roles in the cell. His current research focuses on understanding the regulation of non-coding RNA and RNA/protein complexes in host-microbes interaction and the application of RNA technology.
