Working-Papers
I graduated from Shandong University with a PhD degree in zoology, and then stayed in the university to teach as a lecturer, associate professor and professor. I worked as visiting scholar in University of Missouri, USA from 2010.11 to 2011.11, and worked as visiting scholar in Yonsei University School of Medicine, South Korea from march to august of 2007. Now, I am the secretary of Shandong Zoological Society, executive director and the editorial board member of journal of biology. Now, the master, doctoral and postdoctoral personnel are recruiting for a long time in my lab, the treatment is favourable, welcome to contact.
