🏛️Early Academic Pursuits

  • Tiepeng Wang earned his BSc in Life Sciences from Jilin University in 2002 and his Ph.D. from the Institute of Biophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in 2007. His early career involved serving as a research assistant and postdoc at the Institute of Biophysics and Neurosciences, where he laid the foundation for his future research in neurodegenerative diseases and redox regulation mechanisms.

👨‍🔬  Professional Endeavors

  • Since 2011, Tiepeng Wang has been an associate professor at Shihezi University’s Medical School and a Special Research Assistant at the Institute of Biophysics since 2021. His career is marked by leading multiple research projects funded by prestigious institutions, including the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the Science and Technology Program of Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps. He has published over 20 research papers and edited several textbooks, significantly contributing to the academic community.

🔬 CONTRIBUTIONS AND RESEARCH FOCUS 

  • Discovery of Necroptosis in Neurodegenerative Diseases: By integrating cellular biology, biochemistry, bioinformatics, and animal behaviorology, Tiepeng Wang discovered that nitric oxide (NO) and necroptosis are the primary pathways leading to neuronal damage in diseases such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. His research indicated that as the severity of these diseases increases, neuronal death pathways shift towards necroptosis.
  • Neuroprotective Effects of GSNOR: His studies identified the enzyme GSNOR as having significant neuroprotective effects against neurotoxicity. He proposed combining creatine with GSNOR to enhance neuroprotection, addressing the limitations of using creatine alone in clinical trials.
