research

​​Huang lab applies a multidisciplinary approach to elucidate the mechanisms and functions of epigenetic modifications including methylation and acetylation to develop novel therapeutic agents for cancer, metabolic, infectious, and neurodegenerative diseases; rational designs and synthesize selective and potent inhibitors for methyltransferases and acetyltransferases; develop HTS assay and efficiently create compounded libraries to screen lead compounds.
