  Brief Introduction
  Facing the national needs of a beautiful China and a healthy China, the Environmental Genomics Group uses genomics, molecular biology, and bioinformatics as methods to explore the role of microorganisms in ensuring the safety of the aquatic environment and human health, clarify the environmental fate of risky drug-resistant genes in the watershed, the construction mechanism of microbial communities, and their role in element cycling and pollutant remediation mechanism of action in typical watersheds such as the Yangtze River Basin and the Han River Basin.
