Shuhai Xiao (born 1967, China) is a Chinese-American paleontologist and professor of geobiology at Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Virginia, U.S.A.

Early life

Xiao attended Taihe Middle School in Jiangxi Province, China. He received a B.Sc. degree and an M.Sc. degree from Peking University in 1988 and 1991, both in geology. He then worked as an assistant researcher in the Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, for two years. He earned a Ph.D. degree in Organismic and Evolutionary Biology from Harvard University in 1998.[1]

Career

Xiao worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow at Harvard University in 1998–2000 and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Geology at Tulane University in 2000–2003. In 2003, he moved to Virginia Tech, serving as an Assistant Professor (2003–2005), Associate Professor (2005–2008), and Full Professor (2008–present) in the department of Geosciences. From 2012 to 2020, Xiao served as the chair of the Subcommission on Ediacaran Stratigraphy, International Commission on Stratigraphy.[1]

Research

Xiao studies the interactions between the biosphere and its environment during key transition periods in Earth's history, particularly the Ediacaran-Cambrian transition. He has published extensively on Ediacaran stratigraphy and paleobiology in South China, particularly the Doushantuo[2][3][4][5], Lantian[6], and Dengying formations[7][8]. He is interested in Precambrian microbial world[9][10][11], the fossil record of eukaryotes[12][13][14][15], multicellular algae[16][17][18][19], the Ediacara biota[20][21], the early evolution of animals[22][23][24][25], and exceptional fossil preservation[26][27].

Awards and honors

Xiao's graduate students and post-docs also received plenty of awards which can be found on the webpage of Xiao's research group.[30]
