Sasa Miao (苗洒洒)

I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. degree in Animal Nutrition and Feed Science, at Zhejiang University, supervised by Professor Xiaoting Zou and Associate Reseacher Xinyang Dong. I am expected to graduate in June 2024.

During my Ph.D. studies, my research mainly focuses on nutritional regulation of fatty liver and intestinal metabolic function by sodium butyrate, as well as the effects of heavy metals on ovarian damage and granulosa cell cell proliferation and apoptosis.
