Brief Bio: I joined the laboratory of Professor Chuang Ma at Northwest A&F University in 2014 (sophomore year). My research interest is about multi-omics integrative analysis with machine learning techniques. During my undergraduate period, my research focused on the development of new methods for functional gene prioritization (https://github.com/cma2015/RAP). During my Ph.D., my research focused on the field of epitranscriptome. Three bioinformatics toolkits PEA (https://github.com/cma2015/PEA), PEA-m5C (https://github.com/cma2015/PEA-m5C) and deepEA (https://cma2015.github.io/deepEA) have been developed for intelligent analysis of RNA modifications in plants. And now, I’m trying to understand the regulatory mechanisms of RNA modifications in plants.

个人简介：我于2014年（大二）加入西北农林科技大学马闯教授实验室，研究方向为：基于机器学习的多组学整合分析。本科期间，我的研究集中于候选基因挖掘新方法的开发(https://github.com/cma2015/RAP)。硕博期间，我的研究方向集中到表观转录组。我们共研发了三款生物信息学软件：PEA (https://github.com/cma2015/PEA)、PEA-m5C (https://github.com/cma2015/PEA-m5C)以及deepEA (https://cma2015.github.io/deepEA)，用于植物中RNA修饰数据的智能分析。在今后的工作中，我将继续探索植物RNA修饰的调控机制。
