Research Interests：

My research focuses on marine genetics and immunology. I will take tropical marine model species and important tropical marine aquaculture species as research objects, carry out research on the innate immune defense mechanism of tropical marine organisms and research on molecular design and breeding of disease resistance of aquatic species, and combine the principles and techniques of systems biology with innate immunity The theory and results of the combination are applied to the field of disease-resistant molecular design breeding, and related teaching and talent training work are carried out.
