After my graduation, I continued my research as a Postdoctoral Fellow at UNSW (2019-2023) and received a Seed Grant for Early Career Researchers from the university. Later in 2023, I joined The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST, QS Ranking 2027: 33rd) as a Research Assistant Professor to continue my research on Bioinformatics, Phylogenomics and Animal-Microbe Symbiosis.
