Big Congratulations and huge thanks for being such an inspiration, Dr Zhang!!!

Among many other amazing virtues, Dr. Zhang was acknowledged for his inspiring and humbling work ethic, his contagious dedication to science, his generosity as colleague and mentor, and his genuine care for his students and postdocs.

We are truly encouraged by Dr. Zhang, and we hope to learn from his example!

We are very pleased to have Dr. Cui joining our research team! He is visiting us for one year and we hope to exchange our skills in molecular biology with his expertise in forestry.
