Chenyu Jiang

Professor Jiang's research is to elucidate molecular pathogenesis of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome induced by RNA viruses such as SARS-CoV, Avian and Swine Influenza, and Ebola. Her group has also studied molecular mechanism of lung fibrosis, Psychiatry and Cancer. She has proposed a number of repurposing drugs after elucidation of disease molecular targets. She published extensively in peer-reviewed journals including Nature, Nature Medicine, Molecular Psychiatry, Cell Research, and Nature Communications.

She is also an inventor of a number of international patents. Some of the patents are exclusively licensed to a top 5 international pharmaceutical companies. She received numerous honors including “Cheung Kong” Scholar, the young woman scientist of China, and national outstanding young award fund.
