Chien‐liang Glenn Lin

This researcher studies brain chemistry and cell structure, particularly how a molecule called glutamate is regulated in the brain and how this relates to diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, ALS (a nerve-degeneration disorder), and Gulf War illness. Work includes examining a protein called EAAT2 that helps clear glutamate from brain tissue, as well as detailed microscopic (three-dimensional) studies of connections between brain cells called synapses. Some publications also touch on natural plant extracts and their effects on inflammation, and on connections between neuroscience and cultural psychology.

Publication output has been steady but low, averaging about one paper per year over the last decade with no clear growth or decline.
