Quick Look

• Graduated with a BS from Yantai University
• Graduated with a MS from Beijing Institute of Radiation Medicine
• Currently a fourth-year student in the PhD Program

My main attraction to the program in the Center for Molecular Medicine and Genetics is the interdisciplinary research environment fostered here. I like the fact that the Center brings together a wide range of individuals who span the gamut in terms of expertise and methods. This promotes an excellence in research and education that forms the core of the program here. My interests in the program center on functional genomics and molecular biology and genetics in cancer. After graduation, I believe my training here will have equipped me to succeed at an institute or industrial company, where I plan to focus on functional genomics, molecular mechanism of human diseases, and new drug development.
