My main interest is to adopt multidisciplinary study methods such as Sanitary Chemistry, epidemiology, clinical medicine, and bioinformatics to elucidate the association of metals exposure with human health and the potential mechanism by analyzing the content of metals in biological samples. I have participated in two national key research and development projects as backbone member，and in the National Natural Science Foundation-Regional Science Foundation project as a partner. As the first or corresponding author, I have published more than 20 papers in international authoritative journals, e.g., Journal of hazard materials、Environment International、Science of the total environment、 Environmental Pollution. I served as a member of the Atomic Spectrometry Application and Technology Committee, and the Deputy Secretary General of Beijing Metallomics platform. I has participated in the teaching of Scientific Instrument Experimental Skills, Advanced Medical and Health Instrument Analysis, Advanced Medical Technology and Problem-Based Learning experimental teaching in the school of public health. In 2020, I won the second prize of the 20th Peking University Young Teachers' basic teaching skills competition (medical category) and the first prize at the school of public health.
