About

Professor Zhou joined UIC in 2017, after faculty appointments at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Drexel University, and Florida State University. He has served on many grant review panels and journal editorial boards. His group combines theory, computation, and experiment to address a range of topics in molecular and cellular biophysics. Four main areas are: (1) thermodynamic and dynamic properties of phase-separated biomolecular condensates; (2) membrane association and binding kinetics of intrinsically disordered proteins; (3) structures and pathways of the self-assemblies of amyloid-β and other amyloidogenic proteins; and (4) functional mechanisms of glutamate-receptor ion channels. His research is supported by multiple grants from the National Institutes of Health.
