SELECTED RESEARCH EXPERIENCE

• 1. Research on Problems of the Current Salary System and Optimization of Employee Incentive Mechanism in Public Hospitals in China 01/2019 - 08/2019

  • Master Thesis
  • Adam Smith Business School, University of Glasgow, Glasgow.
  • [Details]
    • Conducted an integrative analysis of employee incentive mechanisms in Chinese public hospitals. The research synthesized quantitative findings from public data with established motivational theories to reveal how internal organizational systems affect healthcare delivery capacity. It highlighted how staff motivation challenges connect to broader public-sector performance and institutional incentive structures.
    • This study provided theoretical support and suggestions for improving and optimizing employee incentive mechanisms in public hospitals with similar backgrounds.

  • 2. Study on The Screening of Livestock Fertility - Related Gene Based on Text Mining and the Establishment of Database Platform 06/2015 - 07/2016

    • Sole Researcher of the independent experiment
    • College of Life Science, Northwest A&F University, Yangling.
    • [Details]
      • Led an informatics-based study applying Perl, Python, and R to identify fertility-related genes in livestock; results presented as graduation thesis.

    • 3. Study on Effects of Drought Stress on Activities of Key Photosynthetic Enzymes from Seedling Leaves of Wheats with Different Drought Resistance 09/2013 - 11/2015

      • Project Leader of the independent experiment
      • College of Life Science, Northwest A&F University, Yangling.
      • [Details]
        • Investigated enzymatic activity in drought-resistant wheat cultivars; led experimental design and analysis.

      • 4. Study on Difference of SPS1 Gene Expression in Different Drought Resistant Seedling Leaves of Wheat under Water Deficit 11/2013 - 04/2015

        • Principal Investigator (Student Leader), Nationally Funded Student Project
        • College of Life Science, Northwest A&F University, Yangling.
        • [Details]
          
          • Successfully secured funding and led this nationally supported key project from conception to completion.
          • My responsibilities included authoring the proposal, experimental design, and data analysis.
          • The project was officially appraised as ‘Excellent’.

WORK EXPERIENCE

• 1. Co-Founder & Director 01/2018 - 12/2025

  • Sichuan Jiuzhou Yuntu Technology Co., Ltd, Chengdu, China
  • [Details]
    • Founded and led a health-related biotech start-up; generated €100k in revenue within two years.
    • Worked directly with SMEs undergoing sustainability and certification pressures, documenting how formal compliance requirements interacted with fluid organisational structures.
    • Observed recurring patterns of symbolic documentation alongside limited structural adaptation, highlighting implementation frictions at the organisational level.
    • Developed structured reporting templates and process-mapping tools to reduce misalignment between regulatory logic and operational practices.
    • These experiences provided empirical grounding for subsequent research interest in micro-level policy enactment under high-density governance regimes.

• 2. HR Manager / HR Assistant 08/2016 - 07/2018

  • Chengdu Kunda Heavy Duty Truck Parts Co., Ltd. (now Sichuan Yixin Hengtong Trading Co., Ltd.), Chengdu, China
