Wei-bin Li, Associate professor of the Institute of grassland remote sensing and geographic information systems, State Key Laboratory of Grassland Agro-ecosystems and College of Pastoral Agriculture Science and Technology, Lanzhou University. He obtained his PhD (2017) in Institute of Applied Ecology, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, China, and had worked in Lanzhou University as Associate Professor. He had been to the French National Institute for Agricultural Research (INRA), France as a visiting student for one year.

Prof. Li has received important awards and honors, including the National Scholarship of Ph.D (2015 and 2016), the Excellent Scholarship of the President of Chinese Academy of Sciences (2017) and the CAS – Agreenium Joint Doctoral Promotion Programme Scholarship (DPP, 2015) etc.

Currently Prof. Li’s research is focusing on C/N–climate dynamics in terrestrial ecosystem and plant abiotic stress physiology. He has published 7 papers in international journals including Soil Biology and Biochemistry and Tree Physiology etc.
