Department of Pharmacology, School of Basic Medical Sciences, Fudan University /复旦大学
Dr. Zhi-Li Huang received his Ph.D. from Ehime University in Japan and subsequently did postdoctoral work supported by a JSPS fellowship. He then served as vice-head of the Department of Molecular Behavioral Biology at the Osaka Bioscience Institute in Osaka, Japan. He is currently Professor of Pharmacology and Neurobiology and head of the Department of Pharmacology at Fudan University, Shanghai, China. Dr Huang leads the sleep lab at Fudan University, where he investigates the role of basal ganglia in sleep-wake regulation under physiological conditions and insomnia. By employing genetic manipulation models coupled with neurochemical, molecular, and pharmacological approaches, Dr. Huang's lab has identified four sleep-inducing and five wake-promoting nuclei that significantly contribute to our understanding of sleep-wake regulation.
Dr. Huang has an extensive publication record, with more than 150 peer-reviewed papers published in prestigious journals such as Nature Neuroscience, Cell Discovery, Light: Science & Applications, Molecular Psychiatry, Nature Communications, Brain, PNAS, Current Biology, and many others. He is often invited to contribute to review articles in the Pharmacological Reviews, Trends in Neuroscience, and Progress in Neurobiology. Currently, he serves as the President of Chinese Sleep Research Society, the Chief Scientist for the China Brain Research Project from the Ministry of Science and Technology of China, Editor-in-Chief for Chinese Journal of Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics, and Associate Editors for 3 international journals including Frontier in Neuroscience, Sleep and Breathing, and Sleep Biological Rhythms.
