Nan Yao, obtained her master degree in agronomy from Jilin University in 2019. During her master degree years, she was engaged in proteomics research, mass spectrometry sample preparation and operation as well as maintenance of mass spectrometers. From July 2019 to July 2021, she worked as a research assistant in Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University. She was mainly responsible for operation and maintenance of two mass spectrometers: Orbitrap fusion and Orbitrap fusion lumos, as well as sample pretreatment. In May 2022, Nan Yao joined iMarker lab as a research assistant.
