Biography:
Hong-Wei Xue was issued the Bachelor and Doctorial degree in 1991 and 1996, from East-China Normal University and Shanghai Institute of Plant Physiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, respectively; then went to the MaxPlanck-Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology, Germany for postdoctoral research (1996-1998). Dr. Xue was back Shanghai Institute of Plant Physiology and Ecology, SIBS, CAS in 1999. He has served as the deputy Director (2005- 2009) and Director (2009-2014) of the Shanghai Institute of Plant Physiology and Ecology, and Director of the National Key Laboratory of Plant Molecular Genetics (2006-2017). Currently Dr. Xue is the principal investigator and serves as the member of the editorial board of Plant Physiology (2011-present); Molecular Plant (2008-present); Cell Research (2006-present). The main interests of Xue’s group include: 1) functional mechanisms of auxin and protein phosphorylation in hormone effects, and 2) genetics and epigenetics regulation of rice seed development. He has published more than 40 papers in Nature Communications, EMBO J, Plant Cell, Cell Research, Cell Reports, etc. and was invited for review articles in Current Opinion of Plant Biology and Biochemical J
