Qiancheng received his B.S. in pharmaceutical sciences from Shandong University, China in 2012. He then joined Dr. Bailong Xiao’s lab at Tsinghua University, where he focused on structural and functional study of the mechanosensitive Piezo channels. After that, Qiancheng joined Chang’s lab in March 2018 to investigate the internal sensation through the vagus nerve. Fun facts: I have ever met at least three Nobel Prize Winners. I was born in the most northeast province of China, and I’m good at skating and skiing. I can do freestyle, butterfly, backstroke, and breaststroke. And I have ever freestyle swum for 1,500 m without a break in the pool. I have a pair of “magic hands”. Once, they fixed the broken printer by only touching it.
