Research Interest

In the clinic, I see patients with gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary tumors, with a focus on cholangiocarcinoma. In addition to conducting clinical trials, I am currently engaging in research in the laboratory of Dr. Li Ding, where I apply spatial and single-cell omics techniques to better understand the process of colorectal cancer metastasis and its interaction with the normal tumor microenvironment, particularly in the liver.
