Research Interests

  1. In the tropical regions of East and Southeast Asia, Cenozoic paleobotany research work is carried out in order to understand the origin and evolution of modern vegetation and biodiversity in East and tropical Asia.
  2. Identification of plants based on leaves, in order to solve the problems of reality (identification of living trees and fossils) and theory (phylogenetic correlation and ecological correlation of leaf architecture and cuticle);
  3. In recent years, mainly studied Cenozoic plant fossils in tropical Asia, with materials from Yunnan, Vietnam, Thailand and other places.
