Chen Li is a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) candidate at Xiangya Medical College, Central South University, enrolled in the eight-year combined Bachelor's and Doctoral program in Clinical Medicine, with an expected graduation in 2028. He received research training under the guidance of Professor Di Zhou at the National Engineering Research Center of Human Stem Cells, Changsha, China (2023–2024), where his research focused on retinal developmental dysregulation, protein function networks, biological development regulation, tumorigenesis mechanisms, and genetic regulation in diseases. His current research interests include the ocular manifestations and molecular mechanisms of ciliopathies, as well as the role of biomolecules in tumorigenesis. He is dedicated to investigating the molecular basis of these diseases to provide insights into precision medicine and novel therapeutic strategies.
