From 2012-2018, I completed my Bachelor's and Master's degrees from Huazhong Agricultural University majored in CropProtection. After completing PhD degree in Huazhong Agricultural University majored in Pesticide Science in 2022, I joined the EMBLab at Westlake University.
I have broad research interests in studying the mechanism of insects’ resistance to insecticides, particularly in the context of insect-symbiont interactions. Mycurrent research focuses on the screening and biotransformation of emerging pollutant-degrading insect symbionts.
