Biography
Bing-Yu Mao has done his PhD in Genetics. Currently he is working as Professor in State Key Laboratory of Genetic Resources and Evolution in Kunming Institute of Zoology. His research interests are The molecular mechanisms of neural patterning and how these mechanisms evolved during vertebrate origin are the focuses of our lab. We use the amphibian Xenopus and the cephalochordate amphioxus as our model animals. Several papers of his work were published in reputed International journals.
Research Interest
Dorsal-ventral patterning of the neural tube, Mechanisms of neural crest development.
