侯永强博士之前的研究主要集中在转录调控和肿瘤发生方面，现在是陈兰芬教授团队的助理教授。团队现在主要的研究方向是阐明Hippo信号通路的关键组分Mst1 和Mst2 激酶在器官大小以及肿瘤形成过程中的功能和调控过程，同时进一步探讨Mst1/2激酶的上下游组分和具体的生物学功能。
Dr. Yongqiang Hou’s previous work was focus on gene transcription regulation and tumorigenesis. He now works as an assistant professor in Lanfen Chen’s Lab. Our research group aims to explore the function of MST kinases in organ size control and tumorigenesis, which are the key kinases of the Hippo signaling pathway. The identification of the novel upstream and downstream regulators of the Mst1/2 kinases for each of these functions is the focus of present effort.
