Karen W. Y. Yuen
Assistant Professor
University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Dr. Karen W. Y. Yuen completed her PhD in the Department of Medical Genetics at the University of British Columbia, Canada, studying chromosome instability in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and human cancers. She then pursued her post-doctoral training as a Croucher Fellow at the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research and the University of California, San Diego, USA, studying centromere and kinetochore formation and propagation in Caenorhabditis elegans. Dr. Yuen is currently an Assistant Professor in the School of Biological Science at the University of Hong Kong. Dr. Yuen has received the Hong Kong Research Grants Council Early Career Award. She is now focusing on cellular mechanisms involved in chromosome segregation. She is also interested in the development of accurately segregating artificial chromosomes.
