Kaho Leung received his bachelor’s degree (2011) and Ph.D. (2015) from Hong Kong Baptist University. He then pursued postdoctoral research in Prof. Yamuna Krishnan’s lab at the University of Chicago, contributing to advancements in DNA nanotechnology and subcellular imaging. In 2021, he started his independent research at Clarkson University and translocate to University of South Carolina. His research focuses on developing imaging tools for organelle chemotype profiling. Through precise localization and chemical assessment of subcellular entities, these tools provide deeper insights into complex cellular processes. In 2022, he received the NIH Maximizing Investigators' Research Award to develop imaging tools for investigating chloride physiology.
