报告人简介：Masashi Narita started his career as a clinician (oncological surgery) in 1992, and after 4-5 years practice, he went on to PhD course studying apoptosis. In 2000, Dr. Narita moved to Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (Scott Lowe’s lab) in the U.S. to start senescence study as a postdoc, there he first described SAHFs( senescence associated heterochromatin foci) and its fundamental role in gene regulation during cellular senescence. In 2006, Dr. Narita moved to Cambridge, UK, and started his own lab focusing on gene regulation during senescence through high-order chromatin structure as well as protein turnover. So far, Dr. Narita has published nearly 50 papers on Cell, Science, Nature, Nat Cell Biol., PNAS, Genes Dev, Molecular Cell, Cancer Cell, Aging Cell, EMBO J ., J Biol Chem, Cancer Res. Autophagy etc..
