Brief bio: I’m interested in mathematics and plant biology when I was a child. During my undergraduate and graduate studies in Shandong Normal University, I was lucky to join the lab of Dr. Yanxiu Zhao and Hui Zhang to study the mechanisms of plant salt tolerance. I joined the lab of Dr. Hezhong Dong in Shandong Cotton Research Center to study the mechanisms of non-uniform salt or water in the root zone reduces abiotic stress of cotton.
