Abstract：
Dr. Lin will talk about his past efforts to understand the molecular mechanisms of ovarian cancer initiation and progression. He will also briefly cover the current projects, including (1) studying the functional roles and underlying molecular mechanisms of lncRNAs in aerobic glycolysis and drug resistance in ovarian cancer and (2) developing RNA-centric methods to identify weak and/or transient lncRNA-interacting partners that are key to regulating lncRNA functions.
