Pung-Pung Hwang is a distinguished academic affiliated with two major institutions: Academia Sinica as a Research Fellow at the Institute of Cellular and Organismic Biology, and National Taiwan University as a Jointly-Appointed Professor in the Department of Life Science.
- Education: BSc in Zoology (1976) from National Taiwan University, Ph.D. (1984) from University of Tokyo.
His research focuses on aquatic physiology, particularly molecular mechanisms of ion transport and osmoregulation in teleost fishes. Key areas include Na+ uptake pathways, acid-base regulation, and environmental adaptation strategies in freshwater systems. Publications demonstrate specialized expertise in gill physiology, branchial transporters, and responses to acidified environments.
Recent publications (2022-2023) span topics including Na+-Cl− co-transporters, ammonia excretion under stress, and functional assays for acid secretion. These works appear in journals like Frontiers in Physiology and International Journal of Molecular Sciences, with keywords indicating intersections between molecular biology and aquatic environmental adaptation.
Collaborators span international institutions including University of Michigan, National Chung Hsing University, and University of Manitoba. Current editorial roles include Chief Editor for Aquatic Physiology at Frontiers in Physiology.
