Biography:
Yan is Associate Professor of Biology Science and Engineering School since 2004. She joined Biology Department in July 2003 after having previously completed her PhD at the State Key Laboratory of Integrated Management of Pest Insects and Rodents in Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. During her PhD she had an internship at the School of Biological Sciences of the University of East Anglia, UK. She was awarded Aquatic biology MSc in 2000 at the School of Biological Sciences of the University of Hebei having previously completed bachelor degree in there.
Yan has led numerous projects, the biggest one currently is a study on the gene flow about the migratory locustpopulation funded bythe State Key Laboratory of Integrated Management of Pest Insects and Rodents,and a researchon innovation procurement for biochemistry teaching funded by Department of Education of Hebei Province, in addition, a cooperative study currently on investigate the herbal medicine resources of Hebei Province of China funded by the State Administration of traditional Chinese Medicine. Yan also regularly advises a range of governments through contract research, expert group involvement, invited presentations and organised seminars and workshops.
Research interests:
We are very interested in insect adaptation from molecular, cellular to organism and population levels by using molecular biological and genomic methods. We have three research aspects, covering Nutrient extraction, living resources conservation, chemical ecology and behavior of insects. About 20 research papers were published in china and international peer-review journals, such asCurrent Zoology, Asian Journal of Ecotoxicology,Chinese journal of Zoology,BMC Evolutionary Biology,MolecularEcology Notes, etc.
