The Cell Lineage Research Center is dedicated to deciphering and intervening in cell lineages, providing robust support for the advancement of national life science productivity. The center focuses on three core areas: analyzing, mapping, and utilizing cell lineages. By investigating the spatiotemporal principles of cell lineage evolution, we study the dynamic changes in key cell lineages under physiological and pathological conditions, uncovering the causal relationships between abnormal cell evolution and major diseases. 

The laboratory integrates the scientific research strength of biology, pharmacy, computer and other disciplines, forming a biomedical computing innovation research platform.

Focuses on frontier research in biomedicine and health, aiming to deepen and expand scientific and technological collaboration. The laboratory also initiates new models for cultural and technological exchanges, facilitating talent exchanges and training between China and New Zealand.

The laboratory focuses on conducting foundational research aimed at addressing clinical challenges related to respiratory diseases. 

The laboratory aims to build a world-class immunotherapy innovation platform covering the whole chain of “basic theory - core technology - drug discovery - clinical research". 

Promoting advancements in stem cell therapy, gene diagnosis and treatment, and immune cell therapy.

Established by the joint efforts of the Guangzhou Institutes of Biomedicine and Health, Chinese Academy of Sciences (GIBH, CAS) and the School of Biomedical Sciences, Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), was officially inaugurated at CUHK in August 2012
