Abstract

ABSTRACTFirst Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Biology Open, helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Hao Lu is first author on ‘ Reissner fiber-induced Urotensin signaling from CSF-contacting neurons prevents scoliosis of the vertebrate spine’, published in BiO. He is a Research Fellow in the laboratory of Dr Sudipto Roy at the Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology in Singapore, using the zebrafish and mouse as animal models to study ciliogenesis and ciliopathies.

Highlights

  • Hao Lu is first author on ‘Reissner fiber-induced Urotensin signaling from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-contacting neurons prevents scoliosis of the vertebrate spine’, published in BiO

  • What is your scientific background and the general focus of your lab? I have a research background related to metabolism, developmental biology, ciliogenesis and ciliopathies

  • The Roy lab focuses on understanding many aspects of developmental biology and human disease, especially ciliogenesis and ciliopathies
