As a plant researcher, I am always fascinated by the complexity, diversity, and beauty of plants. I am taking advantage of interdisciplinary approaches including cell biology, molecular biology, and computational modelling, to dissect the fundamental mechanisms underlying plant growth, development and response to environmental challenges, aiming to apply the fundamental principles gained from basic research to crops breeding and develop sustainable and resilient agriculture.
