个人简介

杨小杭,浙江大学教授,博士生导师。1982年杭州大学生物系本科毕业后,进入中科院上海植物生理所。稍后考入CUSBEA项目,1983年就读于美国Dartmouth大学医学院生化系,于1988年获得生物化学博士,同年到麻省理工学院生物系做博士后。1989年底去新加坡分子细胞研究所工作,历任博士后(William Chia’s Lab),研究员(Principal Investigator) 和高级研究员(Senior Principal Investigator)。1991-1993年,在新加坡荣获李光耀博士后奖(Lee Kuan Yew Postdoctoral Fellowship);2001年,获得新加坡国家科学奖 (备注:该奖项是新加坡科研最高荣誉奖,与William Chia共享)。2010年9月,全职回浙江大学工作。

杨小杭博士多年从事干细胞不对称分裂及果蝇神经发育生物学研究,早期专注于神经细胞命运决定的调控机制研究,率先报道果蝇胚胎中枢神经系统内特异表达的两个色胺酸去磷酸化酶;POU蛋白和Klumpfus蛋白对调控神经母细胞(Ganglion Mother Cell)特异性命运的作用;Staufen蛋白在神经干细胞不对称分裂中的功能;首次报道如Snail家族转录因子以及Pins和Gai在干细胞不对称分裂中的作用机理,神经干细胞分裂过程中纺锤体不对称性的调控,以及神经干细胞分裂末期矫正现象的分子机理等。回浙大后,研究工作聚焦在基因变异导致的遗传疾病,利用模式动物果蝇解析相关疾病的致病原理和机制。这些工作发表在Cell、Genes & Dev、EMBO J、Development等杂志上。
