Research summary
AI-generated

This publication record, listed under the name Qian Zhang, spans an unusually broad set of biomedical topics including lung cancer and inflammation, wound healing and macrophage biology, RNA regulation (microRNAs, circular RNAs, RNA editing), neuroinflammation, Alzheimer's disease, and other clinical and molecular studies. Given the diversity of subject matter, methods, and journals, this may represent an aggregation of publications from multiple researchers who share the same name rather than a single coherent research program. Prospective students should treat this profile as illustrative of the breadth of work associated with the name rather than a single lab's focused agenda.

Cancer molecular mechanisms (lung, HCC, melanoma, endometrial)Inflammation and immune cell (macrophage) regulationNon-coding RNA in disease (microRNA, circular RNA, RNA editing)Wound healing and tissue regenerationNeuroinflammation and neurodegeneration (Alzheimer's disease)

Publication counts rose substantially from 24 in 2017 to a peak of 103 in 2023, then declined to 47-60 per year in 2024-2025, suggesting strong growth followed by a recent slowdown or leveling off.
