Interview with Gary Chung

What got you into science?

I did biology for my BSc in Hong Kong and I began my research in the chemical ecology field looking at how biofilms affect the distribution of marine invertebrates.

Tell us about your professional journey to the LMCB

I got my PhD at London Research Institute CRUK studying the formation of the nuclear envelope and then I joined the Stefan lab looking at the function of ER-PM contact in lipid homeostasis. 

What’s keeping you busy in lab these days in the lab?

Today's talk will be about how ER-PM contact contributes to the formation of apical domain in hepatocytes.

How and where do you see yourself in 5 years?

Hopefully still in academia.

What do you do for fun?

I do fencing outside work.
