Biography 个人简介

Xiao Zhang received his Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from the State Key Laboratory of Grassland Agro-ecosystem, Lanzhou University, a prestigious institution whose research capability in Ecology ranks in the top 2 in China. Xiao Zhang obtained his PhD in 2021 in the Bailey lab at the University of St Andrews and was then appointed associate professor (B1-level) and supervisor of postgraduate research students (MSc) at Tianjin Normal University.

张骁2014年本科毕业于兰州大学，2017年在草种创新与草地农业生态系统全国重点实验室（兰州大学）获硕士学位，2021年毕业于英国圣安德鲁斯大学，获博士学位，并于同年末通过 “天津师范大学引进高层次人才绿色通道”，引进到“副高/B1级”岗位从事教学、科研工作，现任副教授、硕士研究生导师。

Xiao Zhang has studied evolutionary biology for 10 years using genomics, population genetics, and bioinformatics. He has published 13 peer-reviewed articles in top journals such as Nature Communications, Evolution Letters, and Communications Biology, and he is named on two industrial biotechnology patents. Xiao Zhang has held several grants as lead Principal Investigator, including a National Natural Science Foundation of China grant (NSF of China). He focuses on understanding how different evolutionary events such as mutation, genetic drift, migration, and hybridization interact to dictate evolutionary trajectories in rapidly changing environments.

张骁十年来一直利用基因组学、群体遗传学以及生物信息学技术，开展进化生物学研究。张骁共发表SCI 论文13篇，获得授权专利2 项。代表性科研成果发表在 Nature Communications, Evolution Letters 和Communications Biology 等高水平期刊上，引发了广泛的关注。张骁主持包括国家自然基金(NSFC)项目在内的多项科研项目。张骁的研究重点关注突变、漂变、迁移和杂交等是如何与众多环境因子相互做用，共同决定生物的演化轨迹的。
