Brief bio: I joined the research group of Prof. Wenqiang Yang in Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2018. The topic of my doctoral study is mainly to dissect mechanism of chloroplast autophagy and degradation of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. As a semi-autonomous organelle, chloroplast is very important for the growth development and stress responses of plant and eukaryotic algae. By screening the suppressors of the mutants deficient of chloroplast autophagy and chloroplast degradation (CHLORAD), we can understand better of regulatory mechanisms of chloroplast quality control (CHLOROQUAL)

个人简介：我于2018年进入中国科学院植物研究所杨文强研究员课题组开始博士研究生的学习，课题主要是解析莱茵衣藻叶绿体自噬和降解过程的调控机制。叶绿体作为一个半自主细胞器，对于植物和真核藻类的生长发育及胁迫响应过程至关重要。通过叶绿体自噬和叶绿体降解过程缺失的突变体进行抑制子筛选，我们可以更好的理解叶绿体质量控制的调控机制。
