Paul Kwan Chien (born 1 January 1947) is a Chinese-American biologist known for his research on the physiology and ecology of intertidal organisms and his support for intelligent design and creationism.[1][2]
Biography
Chien was born on 1 January 1947 in Hong Kong. He received his BS in both Biology and Chemistry from Chung Chi College of the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 1966 and has a Ph.D.[3] in 1971 from the University of California at Irvine in the laboratory of marine invertebrate physiologist, Grover C. Stephens.[1] He is professor emeritus at Univrsity os San Francisco.[3] He has done translation work for various authors of the intelligent design movement into the Chinese language, among them, Phillip Johnson's book Darwin on Trial and Jonathan Wells's book Icons of Evolution.[1]
