Shinghua Ding received his Ph.D. from the Dept. of Biological and Chemical Engineering at the State University of New York-Buffalo. He did postdoc training at Thomas Jefferson University to study ion channel biophysics using electrophysiology and at the University of Pennsylvania to study neuron and glia interactions. He moved to the Dept. of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering and Dalton Cardiovascular Research Center at the University of Missouri-Columbia as a tenure-track assistant professor in 2007. He was promoted to associate professor with tenure in 2013 and full professor in 2018. His current research focuses on the mechanisms of neuronal/brain protection/recovery after focal ischemic stroke, neuron and glia interactions, and neurodegeneration. His research has been funded by the National Institute of Health (NIH) and the American Heart Association (AHA).
