Brief bio: I finished my PhD in Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2021, during which my research is mainly focused on revealing the molecular mechanisms of endoreduplication control in Arabidopsis. After that I stayed in Dr. Yunhai Li’s lab as a postdoc. Our study elucidated an important genetic and molecular mechanism by which SKIP/SUD3 associates with UBP14/DA3 and UVI4 to modulate endoreduplication in Arabidopsis. Except the study on endoreduplication control, I also worked on nitrogen use efficiency in model plant Arabidopsis and other crops. I hope to solve important scientific questions in the field of organ size control and provide candidate gene resources for improving agronomic performance of crops.

个人简介：我在2021年于中国科学院遗传与发育生物学研究所获得博士学位。博士期间，我主要关注拟南芥核内复制的分子调控机理及功能的研究。之后，我在李云海老师的实验室开始博士后研究工作。我们此次的研究报道了SKIP/SUD3和UBP14/DA3及UVI4相互联系调控拟南芥核内复制的一个重要的遗传和生化机制。除了核内复制机制相关的研究，我还关注模式生物拟南芥和其他作物中氮利用效率的科研进展。我期望能解决一些植物器官大小调控中的重要科学问题，并为提高作物的农艺性状提供一些候选基因。
