Welcome to the Wang Lab
Chemical biology | Drug discovery | Medicinal Chemistry



The Wang lab is focused on designing new drug-like molecules for the treatment of diseases and novel methods or platforms for drug discovery and mechanistic studies in biology. We have two major research directions:
-
New molecules and mechanisms that control RNA splicing
-
Chimeric molecules that recruit new functions on RNAs
We're hiring! One postdoc and one lab technician position are open in the Wang Lab. Join us in tackling "undruggable" targets with RNA chemical biology. Email your CV and reference contacts to wang.jingxin@uchicago.edu to apply.
