Meng-Ya Wang, male, born in 1959 in Shexian
County of Anhui Province, is professor and chairman in Department
of Physiology, Department of Anesthetic Physiology, and head in
Cell Electrophysiology Lab, Wannan Medical College, Wuhu, Anhui,
China. |

Dr. Wang graduated from Faculty of Medicine in 1982 with M.D.,
from Department of Pharmacology in 1985 with M.S. in Wannan
Medical College. After his graduate study of 3 years, he was
awarded Ph.D. in Neurobiology from Shanghai Brain Research
Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1993. And in this year,
he was exceptionally promoted as a professor of physiology for his
excellent performance. He was a Research Associate from 1988 to
1990 in Department of Pharmacology, Loyola University of Chicago,
USA. During 1995 ¨C 1998, he jointly worked as a visiting
professor in Shanghai Brain Research Institute, Chinese Academy of
Sciences. And from 1997 to 1998 he was appointed Visiting
Professor in Department of Anesthesia, Stanford University School
of Medicine, USA. Since December of 2000, he has been a
joint-appointed professor in School of Life Sciences, University
of Science and Technology of China. Dr. Wang is
vice chair of the Executive Council of Anhui Provincial Society
for Physiological Sciences and Anhui Provincial Society for
Neuroscience.
Since 1997, he has
been a member of editorial board of Acta Physiol. Sin. He has
also been an Associate Editor-in-Chief of J. Wannan Med. College
since 2001. His research has involved several fields of
mathematical pharmacology (timed dose-response relationship of
drug action), cell electrophysiological and pharmacological
studies on neurons in sympathetic ganglia and motoneurons in
spinal cord slices, studies on mechanisms underling effects of
ethanol and general anesthetics. He is good at cell
electrophysiology and pharmacology of neurons in brain or spinal
cord slices and has completed several projects granted by National
Natural Science Foundation of China, Ministry of Health and so
on. His current research interest is concentrated at combined
study of patch-clamp, intracellular calcium imaging and single
cell RT-PCR in brain or spinal cord slices on mechanisms of slow
synaptic transmission and action of general anesthetics. He has
published more than 50 original papers in journals such as J.
Physiol., Br. J. Pharmacol., J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., J.
Neurophysiol., Acta Pharmacol. Sin. and Acta Physiol. Sin., etc.
He was awarded some prizes such as Anhui Natural Science Prize.
