I have had the opportunity to work across various research institutions both domestically and internationally, including a postdoctoral position at Cornell University in the United States, as well as research roles at Academia Sinica and National Cheng Kung University in Taiwan. Additionally, I have been involved in private industry, conducting research on drone-based image analysis. This diverse experience has given me a comprehensive understanding of both academia and industry.

My ultimate aspiration in returning to the Department of Agronomy at National Chung Hsing University is to integrate these experiences, fostering cross-disciplinary innovation where ideas from different fields can collide and spark new possibilities.

Our laboratory's research targets emphasize plant responses to various stress conditions, including both biotic factors, such as Fusarium-related diseases, and abiotic factors, such as heat stress. The crops currently under investigation include sweet potato, loofah, bitter melon, and Phalaenopsis orchids.

Ultimately, I aim to integrate industry expertise with research findings and apply them in practice, bridging the gap between academia and the agricultural industry.
