Brief bio: I started postgraduate studies with Prof. Fang Huang in the Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Science in 2012. The regulatory mechanism of photosynthesis in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was the topic of my doctoral study. I then worked as a postdoc researcher studying chloroplast genome editing, chloroplast protein translocation and chloroplast quality control in Prof. Wenqiang Yang’s lab in the Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Science. We investigated the role of essential chloroplast genome encoded genes in Chlamydomonas using a vitamin-repressible riboswitch system and found a protein named Orf2971 that links chloroplast translocation and protein quality control in Chlamydomonas.

个人简介：我于2012年进入中国科学院植物研究所黄芳研究员课题组开始研究生的学习，主要研究内容是莱茵衣藻光合作用的调控机制。博士后期间在中国科学院植物研究所杨文强研究员课题组研究叶绿体基因组编辑、叶绿体蛋白转运和质量控制。我们利用维生素分子开关对对莱茵衣藻叶绿体中的必需基因进行了研究并发现一个叶绿体基因编码的蛋白Orf2971在蛋白转运和质量控制中的重要作用。
