Principle Investigators in lifeomics, bioinformatics, data science and AI in biomedicine

National Center for Protein Sciences (Beijing) (NCPSB), also known as the PHOENIX Center

The National Center for Protein Sciences (Beijing) (NCPSB), also known as the PHOENIX Center（Pilot Hub Of ENcyclopedic proteomIX） is a leading science and technology infrastructure for biomedical research in China. Approved and jointly built by the State and Beijing local governments, the Phoenix Center currently harbors the world’s largest cutting-edge mass spectrometry facility and several first-class hardware platforms including a bioinformatic platform supported by the “Tianhe 2” supercomputer. The Phoenix Center is the first to introduce and pioneer the concept of Proteomics-Driven Precision Medicine (PDPM) as a new research paradigm in the global scientific community.

Led by Dr. Fuchu He, a world-renowned proteomics scientist and member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Phoenix Center assembles a globally competitive research team to conduct cutting-edge research for unmet medical needs. This team has successfully hosted the Human Liver Proteome Project (HLPP), the first large-scale international collaborative initiative led by Chinese scientists. In the future, the Phoenix Center will continue to forge ahead on its mission for the implementation of the Human Proteome Project and the promotion of its worldwide scientific reputation. The Center aims to become a unique hub for global talents in lifeomics research for the forthcoming era of PDPM.

The Phoenix Center is now actively seeking talented scientists in the following research areas:

1. Proteomics/Metabolomics/Genomics, Transcriptomics, et al.
2. Functional proteomics
3. Bioinformatics/Big data in biomedicine/ Artificial Intelligence (AI) in medicine
