Introduction

I'm a M.S. student in Dr. Li's Lab at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. During my undergraduate study, I majored in Biological Science and I used to focus on molecular & cellular experiments. However, I’d like to learn more about Bioinformatics during my next few years.  

As for my hobbies, I like playing basketball and I was a member of my college basketball team. Meanwhile, I am interested in hip-pop music. And I am crazy about ACG (animations & comics & games). 😃

Education

 2018-        M.S.  Bioinformatics    Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China

 2014-2018 B.S.  Biological Science    Xiamen University, China

My Research Interests

My main research may focus on using metagenome and meta-transcriptome to reveal the ecological role of extreme environmental microbes.

The metagenomics can only predict potential metabolic functions and gene expression from the DNA level, but not all genes are expressed in a specific time and space. In order to study how microbial communities respond to changes in environmental factors in specific time and space, including the composition of active species and the expression of active genes, it is necessary to analyze the mRNA expression of microbial communities.
