Shuhua Yang is a professor in the College of Biological Sciences at China Agricultural University. She earned her B.S. and M.S. degrees from Nankai University in 1991 and 1994, respectively, and her Ph.D. from the National University of Singapore in 2002. Following postdoctoral research at Cornell University from 2002 to 2004, she joined China Agricultural University in 2005 as a professor in the State Key Laboratory of Plant Physiology and Biochemistry, where she continues to serve. She is the director of the State Key Laboratory of Plant Environmental Resilience.
Yang’s research focuses on the molecular mechanisms of plant responses to low temperature stress. Her laboratory employs genetic, biochemical, and molecular approaches to identify components of cold signaling pathways, investigate their functions, and explore crosstalk with hormone and biotic stress signaling. She has authored numerous publications in leading journals, including recent works in Nature, Cell, Molecular Plant, The Plant Cell, and Annual Review of Genetics on topics such as cold resilience in maize, CBF-mediated responses, and regulatory networks in plant cold adaptation. Yang maintains an active research program advancing understanding of plant environmental resilience.
