Research summary

This publication record appears to combine two distinct bodies of work under the same name: one focused on the neuroscience of diet, gut-brain signaling, and memory (particularly how diet, gut hormones, and the vagus nerve affect appetite, inflammation, and cognitive function in rodent models), and another focused on China's foreign relations, ethnic minorities, and geopolitics in the Pacific region. Prospective students should verify which body of work, and which specific person, matches their intended advisor, as these topics and methods are unrelated.

Publication output has grown fairly steadily over the last decade, rising from about 4 papers per year in 2017 to over 10-13 per year in 2024-2025.
