Bringing the World's Best Biology to You
Ying-Hui Fu is a Professor of Neurology at the University of California, San Francisco where she collaborates with Dr. Ptáček in the Division of Neurogenetics. Research in her lab uses genetic tools to study neurodegenerative diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, and sleep/wake behaviors.
Dr. Fu received her PhD from Ohio State University before moving to Baylor College of Medicine for post-doctoral training. She spent 4 years working in the biotechnology industry before joining UCSF.
Louis Ptáček introduces the circadian clock and its relationship to sleep, and Ying-hui Fu talks about the pathways involved in regulating human circadian rhythms. (Talk recorded in April 2014)
iBiology and iBiology Courses are part of the Science Communication Lab (SCL). Our mission remains the same, to connect people to science. However, our focus has shifted to producing and evaluating cinematic films for education and the public, which you can find on the Science Communication Lab website.
