Research Interests

Functional Genomics of Domestic Animals. In recent years, we have mainly used population genetics, bioinformatics and other means to deeply mine the omics big data resources of domestic sheep, wild sheep and ancient sheep all over the world, analyze the changes of key traits in the origin and domestication of sheep, and reveal the causal mutation sites of excellent traits for production practice. The research results were published inScience Advance,Molecular Biology and Evolutionsuch well-known journals such well-known journals.

Lecture courses

Mainly teach molecular biology, animal biotechnology and bioinformatics.
