Dr. Cheng received his Ph.D. from the University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong. His PhD study was centered on evaluating the preventive potential and mechanism of dietary polyphenols on the formation of mutagenic heterocyclic amines. Currently, he is mainly investigating the efficacy of novel drug derivatives in the prevention and/or treatment of colon and lung cancers.
