Summary
Zhang graduated in 1977, and then followed the Professor Wang Zhongcheng in the field of neurosurgery. He has great contribution to the neurosurgery, especially in the area of skull base and brain stem tumors. He and his team are among the first pioneers of the basic and clinical research in the area of skull base and brain stem tumors in China. He initiated the first stand treatment in the field of skull base and brain stem tumors, making great improvement of diagnosis and treatment of these tumors.
As one of the most experienced specialists in the world in neurosurgery, he had performed more than 1 000 cases of brain steam tumors and 500 cases of petroclival meningiomas, and in recent 10 years he has performed more than 400 cases of mrico-neurosurgeries yearly, both the quality and quantity being advanced in the world neurosurgery.
Now Zhang leads his team working with the Beijing Neurosurgery Institute, radiotherapy centers and neuroimaging centers, has made the first step to setting up the comprehensive therapy of metastatic brain tumors, as well as the basic and clinical research.
Being a master in the field of neurosurgery, Zhang has earned his name both in education and the development of neurosurgery. Under his direction, 21 students had graduated from the Master’s or Doctor’s degree, and more young fellows have been growing up to advanced neurosurgeries. Zhang took the lead as the Chairman of the Skull Base Tumors, Branch of Neurosurgery, Chinese Medical Association (CMA), et.al. Also, Zhang has participated as a member of editor board in several important academic magazines, such as Chinese Journal of Neurosurgery, Chinese Journal of Surgery, et.al.
