Jiang-Ning Zhou is a professor and vice dean from College of Life Sciences, University of Science and Technology of China. He is the director of CAS Key Laboratory of Brain Function and Disease, and the director of the Cognitive Neural Biology branch of the Chinese Neuroscience Society. He serves as the board member for the journal "Neuroscience Bulletin" and "International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Medicine". His research focuses on the molecular mechanisms of neural diseases and mental disorders. He has published more than 100 research articles in these fields.Zhou mentored 40 Ph.D. students. In 2011 he obtained Excellent Scholar Awards from Chinese Neuroscience Society. In 2014 he received Natural Science Awards from the Ministry of Education of China.Rong-Jun Ni obtained his undergraduate degree in 2009 from Anhui University. He earned his Doctor of Philosophy degree from the University of Science and Technology of China in 2014 and began the postdoctoral training in the Department of Neurobiology, University of Science and Technology of China from 2014. Dr. Ni's research focuses on the brain anatomy, neural circuit, neuropeptides and behaviors of tree shrews. He has published several papers in SCI journals and authored one chapter in the Basic Biology and Disease Models of Tree Shrews.
