Long telomeres: too much of a good thing
-
Michael Chang
Michael Chang received his PhD degree at the University of Toronto in 2005 under the supervision of Dr. Grant W. Brown, studying DNA damage response pathways using high-throughput functional genomics. After his PhD, he took a position at the Swiss Institute for Experimental Cancer Research in Lausanne as a postdoctoral fellow in the lab of Dr. Joachim Lingner, whose research is focused on telomerase and chromosome end replication. In 2008, Michael moved to the lab of Dr. Rodney Rothstein at the Columbia University Medical Center in New York, where he continued to study factors that regulate telomerase as well as telomerase-independent mechanisms of telomere maintenance. In 2011, he joined the European Research Institute for the Biology of Ageing in the Netherlands as an Assistant Professor. Work in his lab focuses on telomere maintenance and genome integrity as it relates to cancer and aging.
