Jingsong holds a BS in Biotechnology from the University of Xiamen, where he received practical and theoretical training in Biochemistry, Molecular and Cellular Biology and Genetics, along with publishing two research literatures on "Drosophila CHIP protecting against mitochondrial dysfunction by acting downstream of Pink1 in parallel with Parkin" , and "2-HG Inhibiting Necroptosis by Stimulating DNMT1-Dependent Hyper methylation of the RIP3 Promoter".

In 2018, he moved to US and commenced his PhD at the University of Georgia and transferred to USF in 2021 . Under Dr. Yao's supervision, he has been investigating the significance of mural and brain endothelial-derived laminin-ɣ1 expression and its gradual alternations in PS19 and 5XFAD mouse model of AD. Jingsong  studies the AD pathology including Aβ and tau plaques, blood-brain barrier leakage and neuronal loss and he is highly experienced at cognitive and behavioral tests, blood flow assays and biochemical techniques.
