I received my Ph.D. from ShanghaiTech University, and devoted myself to the development and application of CRISPR-based gene editing technology in the past few years. Planarians, an unrivaled model animal for studying regeneration, have been hampered by a lack of effective gene editing techniques. Here I will focus on the development of gene editing techniques in planarians and contribute to answering fundamental questions in planarian regeneration.
