The IMCB was established in 2002. To foster cutting-edge research in biological sciences and to translate laboratory hypothesis-driven discoveries into advances in biomedicine and biotechnology, we focus on establishing cellular and animal models to excel in investigations of infectious diseases, human microbiome, regenerative medicine and cancer biology. Specific research interests include
• Molecular mechanisms of speciation ,and conservation
• Axonal and intraflagellar transport in Caenorhabditis elegans
• Pathogenesis of Helicobacter pylori and Candida albicans
• Molecular immunology
• Cancer stem-cell biology and cancer epigenetics
• Virus-mediated genomic instability and carcinogenesis
Our goals are to become a successful player in the global science league and to train potential leaders in both academics and industry. IMCB alumni have made outstanding contributions to superb academic research, biotechnology, biomedicine, conservation biology, intellectual property and technology licensing, entrepreneurship as well as science and technology management.
