Research
His research focuses on cerebrovascular diseases and Alzheimer's disease. In the past 5 years, he innovated the "Dujiangyan-style" bypass surgery for moyamoya disease, reducing the postoperative symptomatic hyperperfusion rate to below 5% and benefiting over 700 patients. The relevant technology has won 2 Second Prizes of the Hubei Provincial Science and Technology Progress Award. In the future, he plans to develop cerebrospinal fluid replacement equipment to advance the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and explore the inflammatory mechanism of moyamoya disease using single-cell sequencing.
In terms of academic papers, he has published research results in top-tier journals such as Journal of Neurosurgery and Chest. In the past 5 years, his core papers have focused on directions including blood flow regulation in moyamoya disease. The department he leads has published more than 200 academic papers in the past 3 years.
Regarding research projects, he has presided over 3 National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) projects (e.g., "TUG1-Mediated Vascular Inflammation and the Mechanism of Moyamoya Disease") and 1 Major Technological Innovation Project of Hubei Province, with a total funding of over 3.8 million yuan.
In addition, he led the compilation of Expert Consensus on Surgical Treatment of Moyamoya Disease in China (2024 Edition) and served as the chief translator of Surgical Techniques for Moyamoya Angiopathy. He has obtained 3 Chinese invention patents, including one for the "Novel Adjustable Pressure Suction Tip". The department he leads has received 81 authorized patents and undertaken 40 research projects at all levels in the past 3 years.
