个人简介
高志增,本科毕业于山东大学。2008到2013年在加拿大阿尔伯塔大学John Vederas 教授课题组(英国皇家院士,Fellow of the Royal Society)攻读博士学位,主要研究天然产物的生物合成,在JACS, Nature Chem Bio等期刊发表论文多篇。2013年,加入英属哥伦比亚大学Steve Withers 教授组(英国皇家院士,Fellow of the Royal Society),从事博士后研究。在博后期间发展了多种流感病毒神经氨酸酶荧光探针(Angew 2017, Angew 2018,US Patent 16/257,920)。之后发展了“FP tag”高通量糖基转移酶活性测试方法,并通过高通量筛选发现了两个海洋来源的Kdo 糖基转移酶抑制剂(JACS 2019)。之后和加拿大医药研究中心(CDRD)合作,筛选了一个包含15万化学物的商业化合物库,找出多个Kdo 糖基转移酶抑制剂。2018年,加入中山大学海洋学院,
研究领域
主要的研究方向是海洋天然产物的基因挖掘以及其药物化学应用。
