Professional Biography

Working in Photosynthesis and Plant Stress Research Institute of South China Agricultural University from Jun, 1996, mainly engaged in research related to plant physiology and enzymology. Currently as an associate professor in SCAU, study falls within oxalate metabolism and photorespiration, focusing on understanding the functions of oxalate-related and photorespiration-related enzymes and the regulation of photorespiration.

Area of Expertise
