Biography
I joined the University of Nottingham Ningbo in 2008. Prior to that, I taught at Beijing University of Technology as associate professor (Head of Department between 2007 and 2008). Upon joining the university, I set up the MA Programme in Translation and Interpreting from scratch together with colleagues and acted as coordinator of the programme from 2008 to 2014.
Research Interest
My research interest mainly focuses on sociocultural meanings of translation, media texts in particular. I also have interests surrounding translation of texts with cultural-specific items, as well as didactic research into teaching and curriculum development for MA students in translation and interpreting.
