The HAO Lab

Our Lab

  


Our lab welcomes students who are interested in experimental (wet) research, bioinformatics analysis (dry), or both. We conduct studies using next-generation sequencing, experimental and bioinformatics approaches. Much of our published work has been carried out mostly on bacteria, yeast and fungi (microbes), some of our projects reached plants and animals.



If you would like to know more, you can explore our Research and Publications. For more information, feel free to contact us.


We are currently seeking motivated Ph.D. Students who are interested in Genomics or/and Bioinformatics.
