Scholarship Description:

UTHSA is the largest medical centre in South Texas and one of four medical schools within the University of Texas System. Dr Chen is affiliated with both the UTHSA Cancer Research Center, one of the National Cancer Institute-designated National Cancer Centers in Texas, and the Barshop Institute, one of the NIH-funded Centers for Aging Research at UTHSA. Both research centres have excellent research facilities.

Dr Li-Zhen Chen joined UTHSA as a tenure-track Assistant Professor in 2016 and will become a tenure-track Associate Professor in 2021. Her lab has published in Molecular Cell (two papers), Nature Cell Biology, Aging Cell, Autophagy, and others. The group is dedicated to using animal models (mice and nematodes), NGS and other techniques to study the function and epigenetic mechanisms of enhancers in carcinogenesis, neurological diseases and human ageing.

In addition to helping postdocs to publish high impact articles, our research programme will help members of the dry/wet labs to develop solid expertise and experimental skills in molecular biology and multi-omics (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, epigenomics and metabolomics), including at the single cell level.
