Research Areas

I am an Associate Professor at the Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences. I earned my Ph.D. in Cartography and Geographic Information Systems from the School of Geography Science at Nanjing Normal University in 2020. Subsequently, I conducted postdoctoral research at the School of Mathematical Sciences, Nanjing Normal University from 2020 to 2023.

My research primarily focuses on Geographic Information Science and Human Geography. I am particularly interested in spatial interaction and geographic complex network analysis, geographic regionalization and regional system modeling, and the simulation and computation of social geographic processes.
