Scholarship Description:
Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore is a research-intensive institution and one of the country’s top universities, recognized globally. In the QS World University Rankings (2024), NTU is ranked 15th, and in the Times Higher Education World University Rankings (2024), it is ranked 32nd.
Dr. Chen Lin joined NTU’s School of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering (CCEB) as an Assistant Professor in 2023. He earned his PhD in Food Science and Technology from the National University of Singapore (NUS) and then researched pathogen resistance mechanisms to bacteriophages at the University of British Columbia (UBC). Dr. Chen has published over 50 academic papers, cited more than 3,000 times (H-index 31), was named a Top 2% Scientist in 2023 (Stanford/Elsevier), and received the International Union of Food Science and Technology (IUFoST) Young Scientist Award in 2022.
Available Subjects:
- Research Direction 1: Molecular modification and application of bacteriophages. This involves using molecular techniques to alter the bacteriophage genome and characteristics to enhance its bactericidal effects, broaden its host range, and prevent the development of host resistance.
- Research Direction 2: Development of mycoplasma-killing products based on bacteriophages and investigation of bacteriophage resistance mechanisms.
Eligibility criteria:
- Assist the team in conducting relevant research projects, independently carry out assigned research tasks, and write scientific papers.
- Participate in writing applications for research grants and projects.
- Assist in supervising graduate students’ research work and provide support for related topics.
Application Procedure:
