Associate Professor and master Tutor at USTC. I received my PhD degree at USTC in 2006, and acted as a visiting scholar at the University of Minnesota from 2015 to 2017.

 

Directions:

1. Detection of the concentrations and associated effects of structural water in nominally anhydrous minerals;

2. Various kinds of volatile recycling in the deep earth;

3. fluid activities and associated geochemical effects during subduction-zone HP-UHP metamorphism;

4. characterization and microbeam analysis of elemental and isotopic geochemistry of minerals on the scale of microns.

 

Teaching courses:

Graduate: <Geochemical thermodynamics and kinetics>; <Field research on chemical geodynamics in the orogen>.

Undergraduate: <Geological tourism on Chinese famous mountains>.
