A fungal biology laboratory
Our laboratory is hosted by the College of Medicine of the National Cheng Kung University, in Tainan, the oldest city and former capital of Taiwan. Click here to find us.
We are trying to decipher the genetic and evolutionary basis of important phenotypes using fungi as model organisms. You can find more about our research goals by browsing this webpage.
We put an emphasis on having fun while conducting our serious research. In this regard, we are committed to promoting a healthy workplace that encourages curiosity and creativity.
Meet our TEAM of mycophiles.
真菌界涵蓋了一系列驚人的微生物種類,而這些真菌的豐富多樣性則能替生物如何演化並適應新的環境提供重要的線索。因此,我們團隊以有趣的真菌及其表現型做為模式系統,並進一步分析這些表現型的遺傳和演化機制;主要使用的模式生物是粉色麵包黴菌 Neurospora crassa。實驗室的主要研究計畫為探討真菌為什麼會產生抗藥性及其機制,並將結果應用於致病性真菌在臨床醫學和農業上的治療。
