Angela Qing xingkong星空中国官网, who was born in Wuhan China, earned her Ph.D. degree in the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Hong Kong. She then went to Ann Arbor in U.S. and did her postdoctoral training in the School of Medicine at University of Michigan. Her research interests focus on skeletal development and diseases. She has perticular interests in cartilage development and chondrocyte metabolism; the role and mechanisms of hypoxia and Hypoxia Inducible factors (HIFs) in skeletal development; the metabolism of articular chondrocytes in osteoarthritis; the interplay between ER stress and hypoxia stress in chondrocytes. In recent 5 years, she has published her research articles in Developmental Cell, Bone xingkong星空中国官网 etc. She was invited to give oral presentations of her work in ASBMR (American Society for Bone and Mineral xingkong星空中国官网) and The Frederick J. Fisher Pediatric Orthopaedic Lectureship and won the 2017 ASBMR Young Investigator Award.
