Summary
I am a neuroendocrinologist, I am interested to explore the nervous system and the endocrine system, which regulates
the hormonal activity and social behaviors in most organism. My main interests are neurohormones, sex steroids,
and their receptors, which play an important role in controlling essential processes in the body. I am looking forward to join a graduate school where I can get training and expertise to advanced my knowledge and skills in neuroendocrinology and contribute to this area by publication. My long term goal is to serve academia via research and
teachings.
