Prof. Jia-Li Li, Principle Investigator, Key Lab of Animal Models and Human Disease Mechanisms, Kunming Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Major interest is to study the molecular epigenetic basis in various human neurodegenerative diseases, such as A-T and AD. By using genetic, molecular and biochemical approaches, we are focusing on exploring the mechanisms that control, initiate and execute neurodegeneration.
