Education
Postdoctoral Researcher at Yale University (since 2021)
Ph.D. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at China Agricultural University (2021)
Research Background and Interests
My research utilizes super-resolution microscopy techniques to study protein distribution in organelles at the nanoscale, spatiotemporal mapping of biomolecular complexes or organelles in cellular biological processes, and cell-cell interactions or communication between different cell types in diseases.
Work in the Bewersdorf Lab
I am applying pan-ExM in mammalian cells and mouse tissues to visualize the ultrastructural detail of organelles, and investigate the subcellular localization and function of proteins within them. Additionally, I am developing a variant of the pan-ExM workflow to expand human clinical specimens and study the subcellular localization of biomarkers, as well as tumor-immune cell interactions or communication within the tumor immune microenvironment.
Outside the lab
I enjoy hiking and traveling with my family and friends.
