Biography

Edmond Chan is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biomedical Molecular Sciences at Queen's University. His research focuses on understanding the cell's metabolic status and its impact on growth, death, and differentiation. He is particularly interested in the autophagy pathway, which is crucial for maintaining metabolic homeostasis by degrading damaged mitochondria through a process called mitophagy. With a commitment to investigating the regulatory roles of autophagy and mitophagy interaction, he aims to uncover the fundamental signaling mechanisms that allow mammalian cells to respond to metabolic stress.
