Current affiliations
Professor Huang's research interests include primate behavior ecology, social system, and conservation in Yunnan and Xizang, China. He is actively engaged in the management of the Institute of Eastern-Himalaya Biodiversity Research. His current projects are centered on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the Hengduan mountains, focusing on primate distribution in regional ecosystems, the effects of fragmented habitats on primates and other endangered species, primate diversity and evolution, and their connection to human evolution and cultural diversity, particularly in the Eastern Himalayas. Additionally, he is involved in long-term ecological monitoring in the Three Parallel Rivers region, mainly focusing on Yunling black-and-white snub-nosed monkey (Rhinopithecus bieti) observation and research station of Yunnan province.
