I am a conservation ecologist, ornithologist at Chinese National Plateau Wetlands Research Center for Conservation Biology. My doctoral research focused on the winter and migration ecology of Black-necked Crane. I have conducted ornithological fieldwork in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Gansu provinces to investigate the ecological factors behind the extinction-proneness of certain endanger waterbirds.
