Dr. Xuehan Zhang received her B.S. degree in Biomedical Engineering from Capital Medical University and Ph.D. degree in Neurobiology from the Institute of Neurobiology at Fudan University. She was a visitor scholar in University of Toronto. Her research has focused on the mechanism of learning and memory ever since and current research interest is the prefrontal cognitive function, with a focus on the chemical regulation and neural circuit mechanisms of working memory, response inhibition, and social memory retrieval.
