Research Interests

My research interests are primarily focused on star formation in the Galaxy, including observational studies of the early environments of high-mass star formation using radio and sub‑millimeter continuum and spectral lines, and multi‑wavelength time-domain analysis of episodic accretion during the star formation process. At the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory, the main research projects are divided into two parts: 1) Observational analysis of the temperature and dynamics of the central molecular zone via the JACKS project; 2)Using archive data to analyze the flux variability of the environment around the supermassive black hole at the Galactic center,Sgr A*.
