She research focuses on reproductive health epidemiology, specifically investigating the environmental etiology and mechanisms of gestational diabetes and neural tube defects. I have been involved in establishing birth cohorts and developing methods for detecting various environmental pollutants in biological samples. As the first author, I have published seven papers in international authoritative journals, such as The Innovation (IF = 32.1), Environment International (IF = 11.8), and Environmental Pollution (IF = 8.9). As a project team member, I have participated in five significant projects, including the National Key Research and Development Program, Ministry of Science and Technology of the People's Republic of China and the National Natural Science Foundation of China.
