Qingfeng Chen

Dr. Qingfeng Chen was a postdoc at UTSW, focusing on the structure and function of mammalian ion channels. Now he is a PI at Yunnan University, and he is interested in how anthelmintics exert their nematode-killing effects via combined approaches of structure biology, electrophysiology, and locomotion assays. He is also actively pursuing drug discoveries targeting known or new drug targets. 2026 Oral Presentation (Virtual) Title: Structural pharmacology of anthelmintics: Starting with monepantel and betaine
