Research direction:

l  Aims to establish a pathogenic big data platform based on viral genomes screening of the environments. This platform is expected to perform a real-time surveillance of the urban environmental genomes, to evaluate the risks of the potential pathogens and finally provide early warning of the emerging/re-emerging infectious diseases, as well as the severe chronic infectious diseases.

l  The development of new algorithm for the molecular evolutionary analysis of virus, the network modeling of viral pathogenicity, and the molecular dynamics simulations to evaluate the spread of the virus in the host.

l  To address the challenge of big data in life science, develop a series of methods for the multi-dimensional omics-data analysis and their applications.
