Self-introduction：

I obtained my Ph.D. from The Chinese University of Hong Kong and am currently serving as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Basic Immunology and Microbiology at the Southern University of Science and Technology. Over the past few years, I have published many academic articles in reputable international journals, including Brief in Bioinformatics, Oncogene, and Cancer Research. My research is focused on exploring genome evolution, understanding transcriptional regulatory mechanisms, and investigating tumor metabolism through the analysis of multi-omics data.
