Biopharmaceutics and Biologic Drugs

Xiping Zhan has his expertise in neuropharmacology. His lab uses multiple interdisciplinary approaches to study neural circuits and underlying functional implications. He applies behavior measures to evaluate the neuropharmacology of small molecular drugs on tinnitus, tremor or mood behavior, and uses patch clamping or single unit in vivo recording to address the molecular mechanisms. In addition, he uses human iPS cell derived dopamine neurons to model pharmacology in human. He has been focused on tinnitus and tremor for years in research and teaching
