Research Interests                                             

My research interests focus on large-scale Data Mining, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Bioinformatics and Computational Systems Biology. More specifically, my research concentrates on Machine Learning, Sequence Analysis, Structural Analysis, Biomolecular Modification Informatics, and Phenotyping of Drug Resistance in Human Pathogenic Bacteria.

I have extensive expertise, skills and experience in Sequence Analysis, Structural Bioinformatics, Machine Learning-based Modelling and Biomedical Data Analysis.

I have published 51 SCI papers (26 in large category Zone1 and 35 in small category Zone1 of CAS) and 1 EI paper in Internationally Renowned Journals: Bioinformatics, Briefings in Bioinformatics, Nature communications, Genomics Proteomics & Bioinformatics, Molecular Microbiology, BMC Bio-informatics, IEEE/ACM TCBB, Molecular Therapy-Nucleic Acids, etc.

I have published 13 papers(6 in large category Zone1 of CAS) as the first author, 9 papers as the corresponding author (3 in large category Zone1 of CAS)7 papers as the co-first author (4 in large category Zone1 of CAS). Among them, 11 articles are rated as highly cited by Clarivate, 2 are hot articles, and the total number of Google Scholar citations reached 2237. H-index 35, i10-index 23, May 2022.

I am one of the few young scholars who have published papers simultaneously in the four major bioinformatics journals of Bioinformatics, Briefings in BioinformaticsGenomics Proteomics & BioinformaticsBMC Bioinformatics as the first author.

A number of personal one-authored articles have been recognized by leading experts in the field, including Professor Trevor Lithgow, Academician of the Australian Academy of Sciences, Professor Geoff Webb (IEEE fellow), Director of Monash Data Future Research Institute, and Professor Tatsuya Akutsu, Kyoto University Bioinformatics Center.

In recent years, more than 20 bioinformatics databases, software and analysis platforms have been developed. These tools have been used more than 100000 times by international users in more than 80 countries and regions in the past five years. This bioinformatics software have been cited more than 1000 times in international high-level journals, including Cell, PNAS, Nature Chemical Biology and Nucleic Acids Research, and have produced extensive influence.
