Dr. Zhong Chen got his Ph.D in Okayama University, Japan, in 1999, and now is a professor in Zhejiang University, China. He was one of the Chinese National Distinguished Young Scientific Scholars and was considered as Distinguished Professor by Zhejiang University. His research interests mainly focus on two fields: 1) the roles of histamine and histamine receptors in ischemic cerebral injury and development of H3 antagonists; 2) Molecular mechanisms of epileptic pathogenesis and development of antiepileptic drugs.
During last five years, his research work has been funded by Key Project of National Natural Science Foundation, National Natural Science Foundation and key project of drug developing foundation in China. As a Co-PI, Dr. Chen participated in one NIHR01 project and one Chinese National Basic Research Program of China (973 projects). He has published over 100 papers including Nature Neurosci, J Neurosci, Mol Med, Epilepsia, Br J Pharmacol, ect. And he has gained several Chinese National Scientific award in the last five years.
As the Executive Dean of College of Pharmaceutical Science and the vice Dean of Medical School, Zhejiang University, he puts a lot of efforts in pushing forward the collaboration and exchange between Pharmaceutical Colleges in China and abroad.
