Major Researchs

The focus and emphasis of the Institute have always been on integrated basic and biotech research. The development of the Institute has emphasized five major research areas: (1) Molecular and cellular biology; (2) Genomics and proteomics; (3) Chemical biology; (4) Glycoscience; (5) Structural biology and molecular biophysics. In the coming years, the Institute will be leading the efforts to integrate these research areas into two main themes: (1) Regulation of Protein Posttranslational Modifications/Cell Signaling Networks and (2) Protein Structures and Functions/Drug Designs.
