许 超,男，教授，博士生导师。2000年在中国科学技术大学生命科学学院获得本科学位，2005年在中国科学技术大学生命科学学院获得博士学位。2006-2008年在美国Mayo Clinic作博士后，2009-2015年在多伦多大学结构基因组联盟从事真核基因转录调控和RNA修饰的结构生物学研究。已发表文章60多篇，总引用2500多次(Web of Science)。其中>20篇为第一作者（含共同第一作者）或通讯作者，发表在Cell，Nature Chemical Biology, Nature Structural & Molecular Biology,Cell Research,Genes & Development, Nature Communications, PNAS, EMBO Journal, Science Signaling，eLife等国际一流期刊上。
主要研究兴趣：运用X-射线晶体衍射以及核磁共振等工具，结合分子生物学，生物物理学以及化学生物学等手段，研究真核生物中生物大分子化学修饰,包括蛋白质翻译后修饰与核酸修饰产生、消除和识别的分子机制，以及这些修饰异常的致病（肿瘤和神经退行性疾病等）机理。并通过化学小分子筛选辅助药物设计达到控制或者治疗疾病的目的，积极推进结构生物学向疾病治疗方向的转化。
