About
I was born in a fishing family on an island in Southern China. The island is one of the important spawning grounds of Larimichtys crocea. My grandfather told me that this species is common and they only brought back a size of 50-60 cm total length (TL) individuals when he was my age, and my father told me this species is common seasonally and they only chose a size of 30-40 cm TL individuals when he was my age. However, this species is rare and small (~20 cm TL) in my generation. Therefore, I am trying to be a marine scientist for marine conservation and fishery improvement. My study interests focus on Marine Biodiversity and Conservation, Fish and crab reproductive biology and fishery improvement. I will develop and apply molecular and traditional biology and ecology methods to understand the biodiversity and population dynamics of marine fishes for conservation.
