معرفی
Yunfei Huang is a Professor in Neuroscience and Experimental Therapeutics at Albany Medical College. His research focuses on the molecular mechanisms of epileptogenesis, particularly how dysregulation of the mTOR/autophagy pathway in microglia contributes to epilepsy. He investigates CNS homeostasis and seeks novel therapeutic targets to prevent epilepsy.
