Dr. Faqing Huang

Professor

Bio

Dr. Huang received PhD in Chemistry from Duke University in 1994. After NIH fellowship-supported postdoctoral training at University of Colorado Boulder, he joined Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at University of Southern Mississippi in 1998. His lab conduct research in interdisciplinary areas, including catalytic RNA related to the Origin and Early Evolution of Life, bioorganic chemistry, mRNA vaccine, and targeted cancer therapeutics. He has received research grants from NASA, NIH and NSF.
