Weihong Ge

Weihong Ge is an Associate Adjunct Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences within the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. Her research spans multiple disciplines with a focus on neuroscience, molecular biology, and psychiatric conditions. She maintains an active research profile with numerous publications across various domains of biomedical research.

Dr. Ge's research interests center on neurodevelopment, epigenetics, and neural repair mechanisms. Her work explores the molecular and cellular basis of neurological conditions including spinal cord injury, Rett Syndrome, and brain cancer. She has made significant contributions to understanding neural stem cell activation, dendritic development, and the role of microRNAs in cognitive function. Her recent work has expanded into pharmacological applications, nanotechnology for drug extraction, and clinical studies on medication efficacy and safety.

Analysis of Dr. Ge's publication history reveals a strong trajectory from fundamental neuroscience research toward increasingly translational and clinical applications. Early in her career, she focused on basic mechanisms of neurodevelopment, astrogliogenesis, and neural stem cell biology. More recently, her work has incorporated advanced techniques including single-cell transcriptomics, nanofiber technology, and social network analysis applied to healthcare education. Her research demonstrates consistent productivity with publications spanning over two decades, showing evolution from molecular neuroscience toward broader applications in clinical medicine and pharmacology.

Dr. Ge has established a significant collaborative network across UCLA and other institutions, with co-authors spanning neuroscience, psychiatry, pharmacology, and biomedical engineering disciplines. Her work has garnered substantial attention in the scientific community, with several highly cited publications in top-tier journals.
