-Dr. Shaoyu Yang is an Assistant Research Fellow whose work spans population genetics, evolutionary genomics, and bioinformatics with strong applications in both terrestrial (silkworm) and marine (oysters, tilapia) systems, and in cancer‐related data mining. He earned his Ph.D. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and his M.S. in Genetics from Southwest University, after completing his B.S. in Bioengineering. He has held research positions at the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University (2015-2016) and has been based at Beibu Gulf University since 2017. His research interests include silkworm domestication and molecular evolution, comparative genomics, population genetic structure, transcriptomics, mitochondrial genomics, omics pipelines, and cancer genomics (TCGA, GEO, miRNA). Dr. Yang has contributed to major national and regional projects, with funding from sources such as the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the 863 Program, and regional science foundations. He has authored/co-authored high-impact papers in fields such as immunology, aquaculture, molecular evolution, and cancer biology; also holds a patent on a DNA vaccine. His awards include “Top Talent (Level 4)” in Qinzhou and recognition for excellence in graduate study.
