实验室主持人: 掌杰 副教授（Dr. Chieh Chang: [email protected]) https://sites.google.com/site/thechiehchanglab/home http://bios.uic.edu/bios/people/faculty/chieh-chang 所在学校：University of Illinois at Chicago 徵求对象：对神经科学有兴趣的大学生或硕士生 你在寻求出国的机会吗？希望增加研究经验吗？ 掌杰老师毕业於阳明大学硕士班及加州理工博士班, 目前是 UIC的副教授, 利用线虫研究神经轴突再生. 他知道台湾学生申请美国学校不容易 (他是入学审查委员), 希望能鼓励多一些台湾学生投入神经科学的研究必且累积研究经验. 欢迎个性认真负责的学生与他联络. 不限生物领域 二类组希望转领域或对生物研究有兴趣的学生也非常欢迎 如果可以, 请於信中简短说明生涯规划并请随信附上履历. 欢迎你成为我们的一员！ Dr. Chieh Chang received Ph.D. in Biology from California Institute of Technology, where he was the recipient of the Helen G. and Arthur McCallum Fellowship and the Howard Hughes Medical Fellowship, Caltech and studied under Dr. Paul Sternberg (Thomas Hunt Morgan Professor of Biology, Caltech). His graduate study at Caltech set out to develop tools to silence gene expression and to understand signaling mechanisms in animal development. Dr. Chang was an American Cancer Society Postdoctoral Fellow and performed his postdoctoral work at Stanford University under Dr. Marc Tessier-Lavigne (President and Carson Family Professor, Rockefeller University) and at the University of California, San Francisco & Rockefeller University under Dr. Cornelia I. Bargmann (Torsten N. Wiesel Professor, Rockefeller University). His Postdoctoral study is exceptional, making a big splash in the field well populated by developmental neurobiologists interested in mechanisms of negative regulation in axon growth and guidance. From 2006 to 2014, he held faculty positions at McGill University, and at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Research Foundation. Since Dr. Chang established his own lab, he has generated exciting new leads to the timing mechanisms underlying transition of sequential events in initial neuronal connectivity and age-related decline in neuronal regeneration. This is a particularly exciting direction since intense scrutiny has been focused on dissecting molecular functions in neurons with sufficient spatial resolution but not enough temporal information to fully understand involved mechanisms. These findings have been recently reported in Science and Science Signaling, where he is the senior corresponding author. He joined the University of Illinois at Chicago as associate professor in August 2014. Dr. Chang is the recipient of the Canada Foundation for Innovation, Leaders Opportunity Award, the Whitehall Foundation Research Award, and the March of Dimes Foundation Research Program Award. His lab is currently supported by a NIH RO1 grant recently funded for five years, a NSF grant recently funded for four years, and a Whitehall Foundation grant. --
