Prof. Shitao RAO is a 'Min-jiang' distinguished professor in the Department of Bioinformatics and Department of Precision Medicine at the Fujian Medical University. He received his Ph.D. degree in the School of Biomedical Sciences (SBS) at the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), then continued his post-doctoral research training in the Department of Psychiatry and the SBS at the CUHK. After that, he was prompted to a senior research associate in the SBS. Now he leads a number of research projects on deciphering complex genetic structure of psychiatric disorders and allergic diseases with whole-genome genotyping data from clinical patients, investigating bi-directional correlations between COVID-19/psychiatric disorders and human common diseases using numerous bioinformatics programs, constructing early risk evaluation system for psychiatric disorders and allergic diseases by combining clinical information and genetic factors of clinical patients. Additionally, he also actively teaches several specialized courses in bioinformatics, genomics and frontiers in research for M.Phil./undergraduate students and aims to cultivate them with a good scientific research foundation and a broad vision of science. Since joining Fujian Medical University in 2021, he has been selected for the 2021 'Min-jiang scholar' Distinguished Professor Program and the Fujian Province Overseas High-Level Talent Introduction Program. He has led four provincial and ministerial projects focused on the molecular genetic mechanisms of various psychiatric disorders and has participated in one National Natural Science Foundation general project. Over the past seven years, he has published >30 peer-reviewed SCI papers (16 as the first or corresponding author), with over 1,620 citations in Google Scholar.

He specializes in Lipid Chemistry, Pigment Chemistry, Instrumental Analysis, Food Toxicology, Functional Food and Botanical Drug Development and Biological Activity Determination as well as Nanotechnology. Until now he has published 231 research articles in internationally renowned journals and authored 11 book chapters in edited books published by International Publishers with total citations of 14676 and H-index=70. He has received numerous awards including the prestigious National Invention Gold Medal Award by Ministry of Economics, Taiwan in 2018 and was honored with Outstanding Research Scientist by Ministry of Science and Technology, Taiwan. He was also honored with International Outstanding Inventor of Biotechnology by Taiwan Inventor Association/International Innovation and Invention Alliance Association in 2019 and Distinguished Professor by Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, China in 2015. Most importantly, Prof. Chen has developed a nano-product “Lycopene Chylomicron” and a phase III clinical trial was completed in both Taiwan and USA in 2017, demonstrating effectiveness in the treatment of patients with prostate hypertrophy. Expectedly, this product will become the first botanic drug in the world for treatment of patients with prostate hypertrophy without side effects. Furthermore, Prof. Chen has developed a nano drink product with cinnamon leaves as raw material recently, which was demonstrated to be effective in the treatment of type II diabetes, Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease in rats. Additionally, a healthy edible oil was developed to be effective in the treatment of cardiovascular disease in hamsters. Both products will be commercially available soon. In 2020, the International Association of Advanced Materials (IAAM), a European organization has honored him with IAAM Scientist Award 2020 for his contribution to the advancement of science and technology. At the same year he was also honored with Vebleo Fellow. Also, he has been rated as the top 2% scientists in the world since 2021 by Elsevier Publishers/Stanford University. More recently, the IAAM has conferred him with the Fellow of IAAM (FIAAM) for his contribution to Nanomaterials–Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Currently, Prof. Chen serves as CEO of Brilliant Nano Biotech Company in Taiwan. He also serves as Editor-in-Chief of the journal “Recent Patents on Food, Nutrition and Agriculture” and Associate Editor of 2 journals “Journal of Food & Drug Analysis” and “Asian Science Bulletin”. In addition, he serves on the editorial board of 140 journals. Currently he is the President of Professors Association, Taiwan, Republic of China and was the Past President of AOAC Taiwan section from 2016-2018.
