About the PI

Dr. Xiaojing Pan

Our research group employs structural biology, biochemistry, physiology, and medicinal chemistry to investigate the working mechanisms of membrane proteins related to neurodevelopment and related diseases, as well as to perform drug screening and structure-informed optimization.

Dr. Xiaojing Pan has long been dedicated to the structural and mechanistic study of membrane proteins, with extensive experience. She has published 5 first/co-first author papers in Science, and 8 co-corresponding author papers in journals such as PNAS and Nature Communications.

Our group fosters a supportive research environment with individualized mentorship. We warmly invite motivated young researchers to explore the world of science with us.
