BiographyProf. SO Kam Hei Karl (苏锦熙)obtained his bachelor degree in biochemistry in The University of Hong Kong (HKU). Then he pursued master and doctoral degrees in Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, HKU, where he received academic training in developmental genetics and generation of transgenic mice. He was a post-doctoral fellow in Department of Chemical Pathology, and Department of Orthopaedics & Traumatology in CUHK. Prior to joining CUHK again, he was Research Officer in School of Biomedical Sciences in HKU.

着作选录
Prof. So’s research interest focused on molecular mechanisms of transcriptional regulation and functional genomics in mammalian development and human congenital disorders. He is interested in studying mechanisms of transcription regulation during craniofacial development, including transcription factors (TFs), non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), enhancers and RNA binding proteins (RBPs) using multi-omics and next-generation sequencing approaches in stem cells and organoids. Multiple projects are available under this theme:
Using functional genomics approach to identify genetic factors for congenital craniofacial malformations
The roles of Irx3/Irx5 genes in craniofacial myogenic development and function
The roles of Irx3/Irx5 genes and their gene regulatory network in neural induction
Study of neurogenic placode formation stages and gene regulatory networks using single-cell RNA-seq and organoid culture
