Research Interests

• Marine ecology: To explore the biodiversity of protozoa in typical coastal habitats and its response patterns and mechanisms to environmental change;

• Population ecology: using protozoa as model animals to investigate the influence of environmental factors on intraspecific/inter-species action with note on its changing law;

• Toxicology Ecology: To determine the biological response of protozoa to typical pollutants in the environment from different biological levels for carrying out ecological toxicity assessment and environmental risk assessment.
