Talk or presentation: 

Our research programs is highly interdisciplinary, bridging physics, biology, materials science, math, as well as computer science etc. Post-doctoral fellow, reseach assistant, and graduate student positions are available! Interested ? Drop me a line [email protected].

All talented and enthusiastic individuals with strong academic backgrounds are encouraged to apply.

· You are encouranged to apply PhD program:

As long as your English is qualified, you may apply. The chance will increase with a high GPA (> 85 preferred, a low GPA may result in a academic score of 0) and scientific papers published (SCI, top 50% in category).

· English Proficiency Requirements of College of Science and Engineering:

• a minimum TOEFL score of 600 (paper-based) or 213 (computer-based) or 95 (internet-based); or
• a minimum overall band score of 6.5 in IELTS; or
• other test scores that may be regarded as equivalent to TOEFL 600 (paper-based) or 213 (computer-based) or 90 (internet-based).

(Please note that individual Departments in the College may adopt a higher standard.)

· Financial Support for Graduate Students:

Hong Kong govement provide a stipend of about HKD 15,800 per month (HKD 20,000 per month for HKPFS), 12 months per year, to all successful candidates. Additional tuition scholarship and travel fund will be possible for students with great academic performance.

Theoretical and Computational Biophysics

My long-term research goal is to explore molecular mechanisms of cellular systems and materials as well as to develop new computational tools in order to understand fundamental physical principles behind biological and materials phenomena.

On-going research projects include:

1. Membrane deformation proteins, e.g., BAR family proteins;
2. Actin cytoskeleton, which participates in many essential cellular processes such as signal transduction, cell division, cellular shape and volume changes, cell migration, and vesicular trafficking;
3. Amino acid – water interactions;
4. Functioning mechanism of photoreceptor protein in plants.
