Dr. Feng focuses on the early development mechanisms of the gut microbiota and its regulatory role in host development. In previous studies, the decisive factors in the early succession process of intestinal flora were studied using infante-derived intestinal strains and germ-free mouse models, and it was found that "host selection" rather than "flora inoculation sequence" determined the adaptability of intestinal flora in the host (PNAS, 2020). Other research results have been published in Cell, EMBO Journal, Chemical Science and other journals. In 2016, he was awarded the Helen Hay Whitney Foundation-Simons Foundation Postdoctoral Fellowship. He was awarded the Nat.Sternburg Thesis Prize-Honorable Mention in 2015 and the Outstanding Doctoral Candidate Award from the Department of Molecular Biology of Princeton University in 2014.
