- Analyzed the structure of Gα subunits and simulated protein-protein interaction models- Identified the putative effector-binding sites and regions in the Gα subunit, with minimal disturbance to protein folding stability- Mutants were generated by sub-cloning techniques and examined using radioisotope-labeled, functional assays- A series of Gα mutant constructs have been successfully made and managed to reduce the functional activity as expected

- Completed a 10-hour teaching training offered by the Center for Education Innovation (CEI).- Delivered laboratory and examination instructions in courses "LIFS 1904 Laboratory for General Biology II", “LIFS 2210 Biochemistry I”, and “LIFS 4190 Cellular Signalling”, assigned by the LIFS department.- Performed academic marking and grading of assignments, assisting course instructors conduct the laboratory and examination sessions.

- Facilitated communications about the learning environment between postgraduate students and the school. - Collected feedback from students and communicating it to the school management panels through regular meetings.

- The Mentorship Scheme 2020 is designed for life sciences and biotech students, aiming to equip them with workplace knowledge and soft skills, as well as the ability to network and make relevant connections. - All mentors are industry experts, young entrepreneurs and senior executives from a wide range of professions in the life sciences industry.

- Participated in a drug screening research project studying small molecules' regulation of metastasis suppressors in malignant cancers.- Performed cell culture and handled 6 cancer cell lines for months, selected A549, MDA-MB-231, and 1321-N1 mammalian cancer cell lines to conduct the research. - Generated and transiently transfected the luciferase gene with specific gene promoters of different metastasis suppressors into the cancer cells. - By screening a list of FDA-approved… Show more - Participated in a drug screening research project studying small molecules' regulation of metastasis suppressors in malignant cancers.- Performed cell culture and handled 6 cancer cell lines for months, selected A549, MDA-MB-231, and 1321-N1 mammalian cancer cell lines to conduct the research. - Generated and transiently transfected the luciferase gene with specific gene promoters of different metastasis suppressors into the cancer cells. - By screening a list of FDA-approved drugs, we discovered that several glucocorticoids could upregulate the metastasis suppressor Nm23-H1 gene expression in several cancer cell lines.- Confirmed the anti-metastatic effect of 8 different glucocorticoids with Western blotting showing significantly elevated expression of Nm23-H1 and reduced cancer cell motility using cell migration assay.
