Zhuoxian Meng is a tenure-track professor and PhD mentor at the Department of Pathology and Pathophysiology at Zhejiang University School of Medicine. Prior to joining Zhejiang University, he worked as a Postdoc Research Fellow and a Research Investigator at University of Michigan. Research in his laboratory is focusing on the transcriptional networks and signaling pathways that control energy metabolism in both physiological and pathological states. His long-term career goal is to elucidate the molecular basis of obesity and diabetes, and to find clues for new therapeutic interventions for these disorders.
