Biography

Yadong Zheng, a parasitologist, received PhD in Molecular Bioscience (2012) from the University of Nottingham, UK. Zheng’s research interests are mainly focused on these small RNAs of pathogens in animals and humans, including viruses, parasites and their hosts, and gene silencing pathways involved, including 1) analysis of expression profiling of srRNAs and characterization of their roles in the pathogens’ growth and development, and infection and immunity; 2) investigation of the biogenesis pathways of srRNAs; 3) revelation of miRNA-induced silencing gene regulation networks; 4) assessment of the possibility of miRNAs and their pathways as therapeutic targets. He is Associate Editor of BMC Veterinary Research (2014-), and member of Young Parasitologist Board of Parasitological Sub-association, China Zoological Society (2011-).
