Biosketch
I received my bachelor’s degree from Department of Biology, Henan University of Technology (China), then I obtained my master’s degree and Ph.D. from College of Fisheries and Life, Shanghai Ocean University (China). During the last year of Ph.D., I studied biology at University of Algarve (Portugal). Then, I got a lecturer at Henan Normal University (China). Now, I joined Department of Biological Sciences, Clemson University (US) as Postdoctoral fellow in Dr. Qing Liu’s lab.
Research
The main research interests are transcriptomics, bioinformatics, and epigenetics and focus on the gene-regulation and metabolic remodeling during cardiomyocyte differentiation from the histomorphology and molecular level.
