1. What is your current position and affiliation?
   
   I am presently employed as a Principal Investigator (tenure-track Assistant Professor) at the National Key Laboratory of Blood Science, within the Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital at the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College. Concurrently, I hold the positions of Director at the Center for Advanced Technologies and Founding Director of the Mass Spectrometry Center at Haihe Laboratory of Cell Ecosystem. 
   
   
2. How would you like your work to contribute to the field of proteomics?
   
   In my current role at the foremost blood diseases research hospital in China and the innovative Haihe Laboratory of Cell Ecosystem, I aspire to make significant contributions to the field of proteomics. By integrating mass spectrometry-based omics with other advanced technologies, I aim to collaborate closely with clinicians to address complex clinical questions. My goal is to propel these technologies towards translational medicine, facilitating the translation of precision biomarkers and therapeutic targets into practical clinical applications. This approach seeks to bridge the gap between cutting-edge research and real-world patient care. 
   
   
3. What have you found in the HUPO community/congress?
   
   HUPO serves as my academic home, and participating in the HUPO congress feels akin to a holiday homecoming to reunite with family and friends. Each congress is a source of continual inspiration, fostering valuable collaborations, and exposing me to new technologies that I eagerly incorporate into my work. The sense of community and shared knowledge at HUPO events consistently propels my research forward and enriches my professional journey.
   
   
4. How was your experience/what did it mean to present your work at HUPO?
   
   Presenting my work at HUPO was an enriching experience, marked by valuable and insightful feedback. The positive reception and recognition of my multidisciplinary efforts within my field provided a significant boost of confidence. This affirmation encourages me to advance further in exploring the novel concept of the blood ecosystem that we introduced, reinforcing my commitment to pioneering work at the intersection of diverse disciplines.
