Dr. Sun received his Ph.D. degree in Pharmacology from Shanghai
Medical University in 1996. He completed his postdoctoral training and had
been promoted as an instructor in Harvard Medical School in 2004. In
2005, Dr. Sun joined the Institute of Neurobiology, Fudan University as the head
of Unit of Neurodegenerative Diseases and holds a joint appointment from the
State Key Laboratory of Medical Neurobiology in 2007. Currently, Dr. Sun’s
research interests include exploring pathological events at early stages of
Alzheimer's disease (AD) towards understanding its pathogenesis. For this
purpose, a couple of AD-related bigenic mouse models generated from selected
transgenic and knockout mice, as well as post-mortem human brain tissues with
increasing Braak stages, are employed as the materials. The on-going or future
projects include 1) identifying early cascades before the appearance of AD
pathological hallmarks (amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles) that
eventually lead to neuron or/and brain dysfunction; 2) seeking potential
interventions that will delay the developments of AD pathology; 3) examining
synaptic changes and its modulation under brain disease conditions, in
particular changes in synapse subtypes, synaptic strength and plasticity.
