Bio

I am working as an associate professor in the school of sports science and physical education, Nanjing Normal University, Nanjing, China. As one of the most attractive major cities in China, Nanjing (historically Nanking) is situated in the lower reach of the Yangtze River. It has a long historical heritage and has served as the capitals of six dynasties. In the Chinese language, Nanjing means “southern capital”, Beijing – “northern capital”. Most of the Nanjing’s attractions are reminders of the city’s past glory, especially under the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). Today, Nanjing is the capital city of Jiangsu Province, covering an area of 6,421 square kilometers with a population of over 5.37 million. 

I got my Ph.D. from Hong Kong Baptist University. Since 2010, I have been working in the area of exercise/PA promoting older adults’ health and reducing chronic disease. This is the main research direction of my career. Currently, I am working with the local community senior centers, hospitals, schools, and drug rehabilitation centers to provide practical exercise/PA guidelines and operation methods for a diverse population including healthy/unhealthy older adults, sedentary students in schools, drug abusers, and soldiers. I am ready for sharing you with my working and study experience about the aforementioned areas. Moreover, based on this worldwide platform, I would like to seek more cooperation from different kinds of organizations and to learn from all of you.
