Chan received his PhD in Physiology from Indiana University in 1971 working on modulation of spinal motoneurons by the brain stem. Following postdoctoral training in Neurology at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York, he has held academic positions at University of Hong Kong (1973-1977), Indiana University (1977-1982), National University of Singapore (1982-1985), and National Yang-Ming University (1986-1998) in Taipei, Taiwan. In 1997, Professor Chan was appointed the National Chair Professor of Neuroscience, the highest honor bestowed by the Ministry of Education, Taiwan, and was recruited in 1998 to establish and direct a new Center for Neuroscience at the National Sun Yat-sen University in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, where he additionally served as Vice-President for Academic Affairs from 2002 to 2004. He was invited to his current position in 2009 as the Inaugural Director and Distinguished Chair Professor of a new state-of-the-art Institute for Translational Research in Biomedicine at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital. As the Chairman of the Medical Research and Development Board, Chang Gung Medical Foundation since 2015, he also oversees the planning and execution of research activities of the entire Chang Gung Memorial hospital system made up of 6 medical centers with a total of 10,000 beds.<\/p>\n<p>Professor Chan is recognized internationally for his distinguished contributions to central cardiovascular regulatory functions, particularly in translational research on brain death and neurogenic hypertension. He is the recipient of numerous prestigious awards and honors for his research accomplishments, including the Outstanding Commissioned Researcher Award, the highest honor conferred by the National Science Council, Taiwan. He was a member of the Commission on Autonomic Nervous System, International Union of Physiological Sciences; an inaugural Executive Committee member of the International Society for Autonomic Neuroscience Research; a member of the Asia-Pacific Regional Committee, International Brain Research Organization (IBRO); a member of the IBRO Advisory Science Program Committee; President of the Pharmacological Society in Taiwan; President of the Neuroscience Society in Taiwan, President of the Asia Pacific Federation of Pharmacologists (APFP), and Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Biomedical Science. He is currently Past President of APFP, Council member of Asian-Pacific Society for Neurochemistry, and Series Editor of the monograph series Translational Research in Biomedicine published by Karger AB in Switzerland.<\/p>\n\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"av_tab_section\"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" >    <div aria-controls=\"tab-id-2\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"0\" data-fake-id=\"#tab-id-2\" class=\"tab \"  itemprop=\"headline\" >Publications<\/div>\n    <div id=\"tab-id-2-container\" class=\"tab_content \" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <div class=\"tab_inner_content invers-color\"  itemprop=\"text\" >\n<p><strong>Selected Recent Publications (<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed?term=chan,%20samuel%20h.%20h.&amp;cmd=correctspelling\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Pubmed Search<\/strong><\/a><strong>)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(\u2020 Contributed equally to the article; * Correspondence author of the article)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Poon YY, Tsai CY, Huang YH, Wu JCC,<strong> Chan SHH*<\/strong> Chan JYH*. <em>Disproportional cardiovascular depressive effects of isoflurane: Serendipitous findings from a comprehensive re-visit in mice.<\/em> Lab Animal, 50: 26-31 (2021).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chan SHH*<\/strong>. <em>Reinstatement of respiratory sinus arrhythmia as a therapeutic target of cardiac pacing for the management of heart failure.<\/em> Journal of Physiology, 598: 433-434 (2020).<\/p>\n<p>Chan JYH and <strong>Chan SHH*<\/strong>. <em>Differential impacts of brain stem oxidative stress and nitrosative stress on sympathetic vasomotor tone.<\/em> Pharmacology &amp; Therapeutics, 201: 120-136 2019).<\/p>\n<p>Mukda S, Tsai CY, Leu S, Yang JL and <strong>Chan SHH*. <\/strong><em>Pinin protects astrocytes from cell death after acute ischemic stroke via maintenance of mitochondrial anti-apoptotic and bioenergetics functions.<\/em> Journal of Biomedical Science, 26: e43 (2019).<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tsai CY, Poon YY, Chan JYH*, <\/span><strong>Chan SHH<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">*. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Baroreflex functionality in the eye of diffusion tensor imaging<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
