I worked in the key lab of animal physiology & biochemistry, Nanjing Agricultural University (NAU). My research work  is animal growth biology, especially the developmental patterns of growth axis gene (GHR, IGF-1, IGF-1R) expression in duodenum. I teach animal histology and embryology. Additional I worked in the office of science and technology of NAU, as a manager of research projects and as a secretary of the president of NAU. My future research work (PhD) is gene expression and histological characterisation of intramuscular fat deposition. Now I work in Dr. Jochen Wegner ’s lab for 6 month.
