Professor

Bioinformatics, Genome Evolution

 

BSc: Mathematics, Lanzhou University, 1983

MSc: Mathematics, Lanzhou University, 1990

PhD: Ecology, Lanzhou University, 1997

 

Research Interests

In my lab, we use the whole genome comparison methodologies to explore how the genomes of closely related species and populations might evolve. Currently, we are interested in modeling and analyzing population genomic datasets using colored de Bruijn graphs.
