Personal Statement Hello, My name is Jun-Liszt Li. I am currently working as a postdoc researcher in David M. Sabatini lab (IOCB Boston and IOCB Prague), a leading center for nutrient sensing and growth control research. My research focus is to understand the upstream logic of mTORC1 nutrient sensing pathway. At the Sabatini Lab, I have been fortunate to receive rigorous training in biochemistry and mechanistic cell biology. This experience not only refined my experimental precision but also shaped the way I think about scientific questions — emphasizing clarity, reproducibility, and the pursuit of fundamental molecular principles.
