Recruitment of Shenzhen Bay Laboratory Dr. W.S. Sho Goh Research Group

Introduction to Shenzhen Bay Laboratory:

Shenzhen Bay Laboratory (Guangdong Laboratory for Life Information and Biomedicine) is jointly organized by Shenzhen Science and Technology Innovation Committee and Peking University Shenzhen Graduate School, and is co-constructed with units with research foundation and application advantages in related fields in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area , The goal is to cultivate the establishment of a national laboratory and build a national laboratory "reserve team".

Introduction of the research group:

Dr. W.S. Sho Goh graduated from Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory with a Ph.D. in Biological Science. He has more than 10 years of experience in RNA biology and his recent focus centers on developing high-resolution epitranscriptomic sequencing technologies and investigating novel epitranscriptomic mechanisms. In 2018, he established his own independent laboratory at the Singapore Genome Research Institute, where he has won multiple research grants, published in prestigious journals (including Nature Communications, Nucleic Acids Research Genes & Development, PLoS Computational Biology, Cell etc) and filed patents for his developed technologies.

The laboratory aims to: (1) Develop technologies to sequence notable epitranscriptomes at high resolution; (2) Identify novel epitranscriptomic factors and characterize mechanistically how they regulate gene expression, cellular processes and human disorders.
