Guangji Chen (PhD.)
Hi there, I’m Guangji Chen. I received my PhD in Genomics in June 2024 and I will start my postdoctoral research at Center for Evolutionary & Organismal Biology of Zhejiang University.
During the doctoral period, I have been co-supervised by Pro.f Guojie Zhang & Shaohong Feng, and also participated in the Family phase of Bird 10,000 Genome Project(B10K).
Now, my research interests are the radiation evolution & speciation of avian species and evolution & development of birds, continuing to work within the Genus phase of Bird 10,000 Genome Project(B10K).
Please feel free to contact me via the email(chenguangji38@gmail.com).
