Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University | China
Dr. Rongfeng Huang is an Associate Professor at the Haixia Institute of Science and Technology, Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University, China. With 6 research publications, an h-index of 6, and 416 citations from 406 documents, he has established a strong academic presence in plant developmental biology and molecular signaling. He obtained his B.S. and M.S. degrees from Shandong Normal University, majoring in Biotechnology and Developmental Biology, respectively, and earned his Ph.D. in Cell Biology from the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences. Since 2018, Dr. Huang has been engaged in pioneering research on auxin signaling, plant hormone perception, lateral root formation, and plant stress physiology. His notable works published in Cell and PNAS have advanced understanding of non-canonical auxin signaling pathways and plant endocytosis mechanisms. Dr. Huang’s interdisciplinary approach combines cell biology, metabolomics, and molecular genetics to address key challenges in plant growth regulation and agricultural sustainability. His contributions continue to enhance the scientific understanding of plant signaling networks and promote innovations in crop resilience and productivity.
