She became an Assistant Professor of Physics at MIT in 1997 and was promoted to Associate Professor in 2002. She joined the Physics faculty of Duke in 2002 and became a full Professor in 2008. She was named Henry Newson Professor of Physics in 2012 at Duke. From 2006-2009, she was the Associate Chair for Teaching in Physics at Duke, and was the Chair of the department from 2011 to 2014. In January 2015, she became the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs at the Duke Kunshan University.

Her research interests cover the structure of the nucleon, search for Quantum Chromodynamics exotic states, fundamental symmetry studies at low energy to search for new physics beyond the Standard Model of electroweak interactions, and the developments of polarized targets. She received a number of awards including being named as one of the China’s National Thousand-Talent Program professors at Tsinghua University in 2012 and the Chang Jiang Chair Professor at Tsinghua University by the Ministry of Education of China in 2009. She was elected as a Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2007. She won the Overseas Outstanding Young Scholar Collaborative Award by the National Natural Science Foundation of China in 2005, and the Outstanding Junior Investigator Award by the US Department of Energy in 2000. She has published over 120 papers in peer-reviewed journals, and has given more than 250 invited conference talks, seminars and colloquia worldwide.  She chaired and co-chaired many workshops and conferences, has served on many international advisory committees and panels, and a number of editorial boards of journals.
