Future-focused former medical research professional with a commitment to quality and accuracy seeks an interesting role with a dynamic, growth-oriented organization where exceptional experience and analytical techniques can be leveraged to achieve results.

WORK EXPERIENCE

Baylor College of Medicine, Department of Neurology, Houston, Texas

(Sep 1999 – May 2010)

Baylor College of Medicine is one of the leading medical school and top research institute in USA. Positions held include:

Instructor (Aug 2004 -May 2010)

As the instructor and senior researcher, I made the breakthrough in finding the mechanisms contributed to neurological diseases.

I first discovered that increased voltage dependent calcium channel currents in thalamus of brain underlying the pathological mechanisms of epilepsy, established the basis for developing new anti-epileptic drugs and treating patients by combining the methods of molecular biology and patch-clamp electrophysiology in epilepsy mice models.

Independently design, conduct, collect & analyse data. Write & get scientific paper being published successfully; Coach students and collaborate with other colleagues.

Postdoctoral research fellow (Sep 1999 - Aug 2004)

As postdoc fellow, I designed a superb experimental set up in the new lab for conducting cutting edge studies in the field of epileptic research.

Design and conduct experiments using state of the art methods including molecular biology and patch clamp electrophysiology, shedding new insights in the roles of membrane ion channels in generation of various neurological diseases.

University of Kentucky, Department of Physiology

Postdoctoral fellow (Oct.1991-July 1994)

To design and conduct studies elucidating the mechanisms of cutaneous microcirculation in response to heat regulation, which plays a key role during aging.

University of Kentucky, Department of Physiology

Reseach Assistant (Sept.1994-July 1999)

To investigate the roles of voltage -gated sodium and calcium channels in the pathological mechanisms of myocardial infarction and stroke in HEK293 cell lines and primary cells by methods of cellular & molecular biology together with patch-clamp electrophysiology.

Zhejiang Academy of Science, Hangzhou, PRC

Assistant Researcher (Sept. 1988 – Oct. 1991)

To conduct Phase III - large scaled clinical trials organized by World Health Organization on the efficiency and pharmacodynamics of long acting subcutaneous injectable contraceptives, including recruiting patients, collaborating with doctors, monitoring of tests, collecting and analyzing data. I also did pharmacological experiments for collected samples using RIA measure ment.

Zhejiang Medical University Second Affiliated Hospital, Hangzhou, PRC

Research Assistant (Sept. 1985 – Sept.1988)

To design and conduct cardiovascular research on investigating the hormonal release and blood levels of atrial natriuretic facttor (ANF) in various cardiovascular diseases such as arrhythmic patients by using radio immunoassay (RIA) measurement.
