Yin, Zi 殷姿 profile

Yin, Zi 殷姿

yz

I obtained my Bachelor degree in Medical Laboratory Technology from Tianjin Medical University in 2020 and my Master degree in Immunology from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine in 2023. I am currently pursuing a PhD in Human Genetics and Anthropology at the School of Life Sciences, Fudan University. My main work involves constructing whole-genome libraries and conducting data analysis, with a focus on the genetic structure and admixture of populations, exploring the history of population interactions and migrations.

Yan Gao is a doctoral student at Fudan University. He received his Bachelor's degree from Zhejiang Occean University in 2021 and his Master's degree from Shantou University in 2024. In recent years, Yan has primarily focused on understanding the molecular mechanisms of adaptive evolution in marine organisms, such as fish and crabs, as well as their population genetic structures. Currently, his research interest is dedicated to integrating ancient DNA data with modern genomic data to explore the spatiotemporal changes of ancient human populations and their adaptive evolutionary mechanisms.

Qi, Yimeng 齐艺萌 profile

Qi, Yimeng 齐艺萌

qym

I am currently pursuing my Master's degree in Biology and Medicine at Fudan University, studying population genetics and human history in Central and East Asia. Prior to this, I worked as an immunological detection researcher at IVC Company after receiving my Bachelor's degree in Biotechnology from Nanchang University (2021). My research interests lie in understanding human population history through an interdisciplinary approach, combining evidence from population genetics, archaeological findings, and paleoclimatic records. Currently, I focus on reconstructing migration patterns and demographic history across the Asian continent, using ancient DNA data to investigate historical population dynamics and social structures.

zcc

I received my Bachelor’s degree in Life Sciences from Jilin University and began my Master’s studies at the School of Life Sciences, Fudan University in 2024. My current work focuses on ancient DNA research, particularly wet lab procedures such as the construction of whole-genome libraries from archaeological samples. Currently, I am interested in genome-wide analysis of ancient East Asian populations.Outside of the lab, I enjoy walking around the city, swimming, and spending time with cats.
