Chun-Liang Pan
Associate Editor
Chun-Liang Pan is a Distinguished Professor at the Institute of Molecular Medicine, National Taiwan University (NTU), in Taipei, Taiwan. He received an MD and completed residency in clinical neurology at NTU, and then obtained a PhD in neuroscience at the University of California, Berkeley, under the mentorship of Gian Garriga. After postdoc training with Steve McIntire at the University of California, San Francisco, he established his own lab at NTU in 2010.
