Summary

I am currently an assistant curator for vertebrate paleontology at the Department of Geology, National Museum of Natural Science, Taichung, Taiwan. I am also adjunctly affiliated to the Department of Earth Sciences, National Cheng Kung University, Tainan, Taiwan. My research focuses on elucidating dinosaur reproductive biology or behaviors based on dinosaur egg or egg-clutches. Before getting into the world of paleontology, I have been working on seismology and tectonics in Taiwan and South China Sea.
