About

Expertise: Dr. Chen has expertise in molecular, biochemical, genetic and genomic research, as well as the skill to integrate various omics data to model plant processes, including the transcriptional regulation of wood formation. Research Interests: His current research focuses on the genetic regulation of wood cell wall biosynthesis using systematic approaches that integrate genetic/genomics, biotechnology, and bioinformatics. Alterations in wood cell wall components can significantly affect plant growth, resilience, and desirable wood products. With his work, Chen aims to identify specific breeding target genes that could be modified to develop forest trees with high productivity of cellulose-based biofuels and greater environmental resilience using gene-editing approach.

Metrics description
h-index
A scientist has an h-index if h of his N publications are cited at least h times each, while the remaining (N - h) publications are cited no more than h times each.
i10-index
The number of the author's publications that received at least 10 links each.
m-index
The researcher's m-index is numerically equal to the ratio of his h-index to the number of years that have passed since the first publication.
o-index
The geometric mean of the h-index and the number of citations of the most cited article of the scientist.
g-index
For a given set of articles, sorted in descending order of the number of citations that these articles received, the g-index is the largest number such that the g most cited articles received (in total) at least g2 citations.
w-index
If w articles of a researcher have at least 10w citations each and other publications are less than 10(w+1) citations, then the researcher's w-index is equal to w.
