研究領域
研究興趣
Biogeography, bioinformatics, hypermethylation in cancer, conservation genetics, evolution, gene regulation, molecular ecology, phylogenetics, population genetics and systematics.
研究專長1
Gene regulation is one of the research cores for this century. After the accomplishments of human and chimpanzee complete genome sequences, because of a very low variation between these two sister-taxa, scientists were induced to consider gene regulation as a key in human speciation; maybe in other taxa as well. To uncover the mechanisms of gene regulation is not an easy task. Fortunately, yeast, a single cell eukaryote organism, has become a good study model to insight the mystery of gene regulations. To apply these in natural populations also attracts my attention.
研究專長2
Biogeographic and phylogenetic analyses are the knowledge and tools to study evolution in nature. I would like to apply these on different taxa to synthesize how evolutionary events have driven the evolution of organisms’ distribution patterns, population structures, and speciation on global or local scales. The East and Southeast Asia encompasses one of the most actively geographical histories on earth with extremely high biodiversities. Conservation issues are highly emphasized and valued there. However, we are still limited in organism information from these areas. I plan to contribute my effort in biogeography in these regions, particularly including my home country of Taiwan.
研究專長3
Aberrant hypermethylation cancer has its highly positive correlation to the carcinogenesis. It is still unclear their cause-result relationship. However, evidence shows that aberrant hypermethylation appears at a very early stage of carcinogenesis. Also, we often see it happen to tumor suppressor genes. Therefore, it may become an ideal biomarker for carcinogenesis. On the other hand, it might have the potential to become a target for cancer therapies. Traditionally, methylation analysis uses “methylation specific primers” to detect the sample whether methylated or not. Here, we use Pyrosequencing to detect the level (percentage) of the methylation in each sample. Hopefully, we may have a deep insight to answer more biological questions about aberrant hypermethylation cancers.
