My name is Xi Zhang, I am a recently graduated PhD from Dr. David Smith Lab at Biology 
Department. I enjoyed four-year diverse life at the most beautiful Western campus. Working 
with the brightest minds from Western, I made significant progress on my research. By using the 
state-of-the-art DNA-Seq and RNA-Seq techniques as well as comparative genomics 
approaches, I unraveled the common mechanisms in the adaptation to cold environment in a 
psychrophilic green alga Chlamydomonas sp. UWO241.
