BSc – Biology, Ludong University, China
Research Interests:
Broadly, I am interested in the plant-soil-microbe interactions throughout terrestrial ecosystems. My current focus is untangling how livestock grazing affects plant-soil-microbe interactions to regulate the nitrogen cycling in orchard ecosystem. Prior to joining the Gaudin lab, my research focused on understanding how the plant-microbiome interactions affect nitrogen cycling in bioenergy crops.
