Biography

I am a vertebrate paleontologist. I work now as a postdoctoral reseacher in Univeristy of Helsinki and a guest researcher in the Swedish Museum of Natural History (home based). My main research interesting is reconstruction of mammalian community and ecology niche during Late Cenozoic. I focus on reconstruction climate conditions and ecoregions in Neogene and Pleistocene via fossil herbivores dental ecometrics, also early human energy niches changed during Pleistocene. I have been worked as a researcher in Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology (China), University of Helsinki (Finland) and Swedish Museum of Nature History (Sweden). My current research project is "Environments and energy use of Early Humans on the edge--Nihewan case". The project is founded by the academy of Finland from sep. 2021-Aug. 2025.
