  • Profile

    I envisioned a career in Life Science when I was a kid, and have been pursuing this dream ever since. Starting as a summer student in a chemistry lab, I studied controlled release of anti-tumor drugs. During that period of time, I developed a strong interest in cell division controls. I joined Dr. Yao’s lab at USTC as a graduate student later on, to explore molecular mechanisms that ensure accurate segregation of chromosomes in mitosis. In 2010, I joined Dr. O’Farrell’s lab at UCSF as a postdoctoral researcher to further study cell cycle regulations during early embryonic development. In 2017, I joined Xiangya Hospital of Central South University as a faculty member. My lab is using state-of-the-art biophotonic sensors and advanced microscopy to visualize key biological events associated with early embryogenesis as well as tumorigenesis.
