Bio

I received a BS degree in Chemistry (2019; advisors: Prof. Guibin Jiang, Prof. Dujin Wang, and Prof. Xia Dong) and an MS degree in Archaeological Science (2022; advisor: Prof. Yimin Yang from the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences.
My research in the past focused on the analysis of ancient alcoholic beverages, with several findings and methodological contributions. Besides, I also conducted some research on ancient ceramics and alchemy.
At Stanford, I plan to learn the research paradigm of archaeology and anthropology, continue to analyze alcohol remains to restore information about their types, raw materials, and techniques, and, if possible, introduce or extend metabolomics or other methods to archaeological research.
