Thomas S. K. Chang (1948-1996) was an American reproductive biologist. He was born in Hawaii in 1948, and earned a bachelor's degree and Ph.D. from the University of Hawaiʻi in 1970 and 1976.[1] In 1977, he came to The Johns Hopkins School of Hygiene and Public Health to carry out his postdoctoral studies.
