Bio:

I am teaching the following courses in Fudan University: Introduction to Biology, Essential Cell Biology, Principles in Cell Biology, Modern Microscopy in Cell Biology, Advanced Topics in Organelle Biology. I use the integrated course design to improve student learning. I use active learning and blended learning approaches and evidence-based teaching in all these courses.

Since 2015, I become responsible for a top talent training program (bio-elite.fudan.edu.cn) in Fudan and plays an administrative role in the Tan School of Innovation (tsi.fudan.edu.cn). I believe that authentic research experience is crucial for undergraduate science teaching, and science communication is a vital part of training future scientists.

In 2012, I started my laboratory in Fudan. Two Ph.D. students graduated in the middle of 2019, and one in 2020.
