SPEAKERS
Dr. Yanchun Li
Professor of Medicine at The University of Chicago
BS, 1983, Wuhan University, Virology MS, 1986, Wuhan University, Molecular Virology PhD, 1991, Kent State University, Biochemistry Fellowship, 1997, Massachusetts General Hospital, Medicine Fellowship, 1997, Harvard Medical School, Medicine Dr. Li ‘s main research interest is the vitamin D endocrine system. His lab is exploring the functions of vitamin D using molecular, cellular and genetic approaches. Their current research focuses on several areas: 1) vitamin D regulation of the renin-angiotensin system and blood pressure as well as mineral metabolism, including renal handling of calcium, phosphate, sulfate and water; 2) exploring roles of the vitamin D receptor in adipogenesis and lipid metabolism in cells and animals; 3) chemoprevention of vitamin D against colon cancer genesis and development; 4)mechanism of vitamin D receptor regulation of the hair growth cycle.

Dr. Guoxun Chen
Associate Professor at Department of Nutrition at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville
Dr. Chen obtained his BS and MS degrees in Virology and Molecular Biology from Wuhan University, and PhD degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center Dallas. He has been studying the role of vitamin A in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism, and the development of chronic metabolic diseases such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. Dr. Chen is the past president of North American Chinese Society for Nutrition, and the chair of Nutritional Science and Metabolism of the American Diabetes Association (2020-2022).

Senior Investigator at National Cancer Institute, NIH
HIV Dynamics and Replication Program Retroviral Replication Laboratory Head, Tumor Virus RNA Biology Section Center for Cancer Research National Cancer Institute NIH Dr. Zheng received his medical and virological training in China (1981) and was a Yale-China Exchange Scholar in clinical virology at Yale University (1981-1984). He served as Associate Professor, Chief of the Clinical Virology Laboratory, and Deputy/Acting Director of the Virus Research Institute, Wuhan University School of Medicine, China (1985-1990). Dr. Zheng was Vice-President of the Chinese Society of Medical Virology (1988-1990). He first isolated enterovirus type 71 (EV71, ATCC VR-1432) in China from the vesicle fluid of a hand, foot, and mouth disease patient and identified a new poxvirus named epidemic erythromelagia-related poxvirus (ERPV, ATCC VR-1431).
