Research Area

I have been interested in the Daoist Literature, Daoistmedicine and science of nourishing life since I worked for my master degree. And I have been working hard in these two areas for all these years. In recent years, I host the National Social Science Project “Collecting, Collating and Studying of Daoshu and Hundreds of Its Quoting Books”. Daoshu is an important Daoistclassic which quoted hundreds of books. The project is dedicated to acomprehensive research on them. It tries to clarify the development history and thought evolution of Daoist literature on nourishing life before Song Dynasty. This kind of elaborate basic research work contributes to the discipline constructionof Daoist Literature Studies and helps counterparts to carry out follow-up study. Meanwhile, exploring the Daoist essence of nourishing life and alchemy ideological essence is conducive to make the past serve the present, also conducive to Sino foreign cultural exchanges.
