Zeng Rong

Zeng Rong is a Chinese biochemist researching and developing technology for proteomics research. She is currently a professor at the Institute of Biochemistry and Cell Biology at the Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences.

Education Zeng graduated from the Biology department at Hunan Normal University in China in 1995, with a Bachelor's degree. She then got her doctoral degree in biochemistry and molecular biology in 2000, at the Institute of Biochemistry and Cell Biology, Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences. She was mentored by a famous protein analyst Xia Qichang.

Career Zeng has been working at the Institute of Biochemistry and Cell Biology where she got her doctoral degree since 2000 after her graduation. She works as a doctoral supervisor, and she is also the principal investigator of her research group. She was offered to be an editor of the magazine Proteomics in January 2005, and Molecular and Cell Proteomics in 2006. Zeng was also accepted as a committee member of HUPO in September 2009. In order to regulate the mechanisms involved in the dynamic behavior of proteins, Zeng and her team utilized epigenetic, transcriptomic, and MiRNA data along with proteomic data to find out how biological molecules interact on a systematic level. . Her studies in the large scale proteome profiling was cited to bring up topics on related potential clinical applications. . The team's discovery helped developing the idea about the conservation of certain mechanisms from bacteria to human. . Figures from this paper was referred to as a confirmation to experimental results from similar researches done by other scientists.
