[研究方向 Research interests]
以鱼类为主要模式系统，结合动物行为、分子生态、种群基因组学等方法研究进化生物学中的基本问题。感兴趣的方向主要为物种形成与多态性保存机制、生殖隔离的行为学机制、种间杂交、自然选择与性选择的基因组进化、近中性进化与衰老基因组学。
I study basic questions in evolutionary biology using fish as model systems, combining animal behavior, molecular ecology, genomics and population genetics. Topics in our lab encompass the mechanism of speciation and maintenance of polymorphism, behavioral mechanisms of reproductive isolation, interspecific hybridization, the effects of natural and sexual selection on genome evolution, nearly neutral mutations and aging genomics.
