Research Interests

Our lab is focused on studying the molecular mechanism and biological functions of RNA modifications and non-coding RNAs. We integrate multiple research approaches, including epigenetics, molecular biology, and high-throughput sequencing, to reveal novel regulatory pathways of RNA modifications/ncRNAs on chromatin state and gene transcription, and further explore their biological significance in stem cell differentiation, anti-tumor immunity, autoimmune diseases, cancer, and aging.
