Yibin joined the Cassar Lab as a visiting student in the fall of 2018. He graduated in 2014 from Xiamen University, China with a bachelor’s degree with Marine Biology and then became a Ph.D candidate in Environmental Sciences.

Yibin ’s research interests are the biological pump and global climate change, particularly focusing on carbon export and the response of microbial metabolism to ocean acidification. He is excited to combine incubation approach and shipboard measurements of net community production to gain more insight into the metabolic state and associated controlling factors of the sunlight ocean.

In his spare time, Yibin enjoys swimming, cooking, playing basketball and Pingpo.
