I am an Assistant Professor at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou). Prior to this, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Pennsylvania (2023–2025) and the Rice University (2025–2026). I received my Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the National University of Singapore in 2023 and my bachelor’s degree from the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC).
Research Interests
My research aims to advance wireless technologies to address real-world challenges in human health and improve quality of life. My recent work focuses on developing radio-frequency hardware systems and AI-driven signal processing algorithms that enable accurate, efficient, and unobtrusive healthcare anywhere, anytime. My research topics include non-contact sensing, flexible bioelectronics, edge computing, and the fabrication and integration of biomedical devices.
I’m always looking for motivated and creative postdocs, PhD students, RAs, and visiting students to join my group. For details, please see Join Us. Thank you!
