Prof. Zhao Hui is now working at the School of Biomedical Sciences, The Chinese University of Hong Kong. He also serves as the Deputy Director of KIZ/CUHK Joint Laboratory of Bioresources and Molecular Research in Common Diseases. He is the Visiting Professor of Jinan University, Chongqing Medical University and Ningxia Medical University.
Prof. Zhao Hui received his Bachelor Degree from School of Life Sciences, Shandong University in 1995, and Master Degree in 1998. He obtained his Ph. D. from University of Essen, Germany in 2002. He had his post-doctoral training at the National Institutes of Health and Child Health and Development (NICHD) before he joined The Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2008. Professor Zhao Hui is the member of the American Society for Biochemistry, American Society of Developmental Biology, American Association for Cancer Research, Chinese Association of Cell Biology and the Hong Kong Society for Developmental Biology. Professor Zhao Hui’s research interests cover cancer biology and developmental biology. His laboratory studies the mechanism of neural crest differentiation, germ layer formation and cell migration, and how these multiple events affect the embryonic patterning. In the past a few years, he also studied the tumorigenesis of neuroblastoma. Recently his group utilized TALEN and Cas9 nucleases to do gene targeting in Xenopus, zebrafish, and stem cells. He has published over 60 papers in high impact journals including PNAS, Development, EMBO Journal, Nucleic Acids Research and Journal of Biological Chemistry. He serves as reviewers for various magazines such as PNAS, Development, and Plos Biology. His research is supported by the funds from the Ministry of Science and Technology, the National Natural Science Foundation of China and Hong Kong Research Grants Council.
