Assistant Professor Cheok Chit Fang earned her B.Sc. (Hons) from Imperial College London and her DPhil from the University of Oxford. She began her research career at the University of Oxford (CRUK), focusing on genomic instability in cancers during her PhD training, followed by a Postdoctoral Fellowship at A*STAR, Singapore. Chit Fang's research centers on molecular vulnerabilities in cancers, laying the groundwork for identifying novel therapeutic targets and approaches. Through gene perturbation studies and chemical biology screens, her work uncovers new lead targets along with predictive biomarkers for diagnostics. Her research also extends into cancer metabolism, and the crosstalk with DNA damage and repair pathways.
