1. Molecular mechanism of adaptation to various environments in animals. We study the genotype-phenotype relationship at the genomic level under the guidance of natural selection theory ,  while combining multiple advanced techniques including NGS ,  bioinformatics and functional assays ,  etc.

2. Novel disease-related gene identification and  the etiopathogenesis study. Through genomic analyses using non model organisms ,  we try to aid the comprehensive understanding of the etiopathogenesis in human longevity ,  cardiovascular diseases and tumors from a different angle.
