He has successively received the National Science Fund for Excellent Young Scholars of China (2017), Beijing NSF Outstanding Scholarship Award (2018), National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars of China (2020), and was appointed as a Distinguished Professor by the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2022. He currently serves as the Deputy Director of the Research Department of BIOLS and Director of the Genomic Informatics Branch of the Chinese Society of Bioinformatics. Dr. Zhao is mainly devoted to establishing efficient algorithm models and experimental techniques, exploring the composition and dynamics of the human microbiome and non-coding RNA, with the aim of deciphering their relationships with human health and disease. He has served as Associate Editor or Editorial Board Member for more than 10 academic journals, including Briefings in Bioinformatics, Science Bulletin, Science China Life Sciences, Genomics, Proteomics & Bioinformatics, Journal of Genetics and Genomics, mLife, etc.
 Dr. Zhao has published more than 80 corresponding author papers in journals such as Cell, Gut, Nature Biotechnology, Nature Methods, Nature Computational Science, and Nature Communications. His papers have been cited over 12,000 times (H-index 50), with more than ten papers being recognized as highly cited according to ESI. He has received the "Outstanding Supervisor Award of the Chinese Academy of Sciences" for six consecutive years (2017 to 2023), and twice received the "Lingyan Award of University of Chinese Academy of Sciences", the "Zhu Liyuehua Outstanding Teacher Award of the Chinese Academy of Sciences," and the "BHP Outstanding Mentor Award of the Chinese Academy of Sciences." He has mentored seven graduate students who have received the "President's Award of the Chinese Academy of Sciences" and the "Outstanding Doctoral Thesis of the Chinese Academy of Sciences." Currently, he is responsible for projects such as the Chief Scientist of the National Key R&D Program, the National Natural Science Foundation for Distinguished Young Scholars and Key Projects.
