Biography

I am now pursuing my Ph.D. studies in the PR-Lab at Nanjing University under the supervision of Prof. Caifeng Shan and Assoc. Prof. Yuqi Fang. Prior to this, I served as a full-time research assistant at the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, working under the direction of Prof. Ruxin Wang. In 2023, I completed my Master's degree at Beijing University of Technology, where I was fortunate to be advised by Assoc. Prof. Xiaodan Zhang and co-advised by Prof. Junzhong Ji.

My research interests lie in the Multi-modal (CV, NLP, etc.) Learning and Causality in Biomedical Informatics. Currently, I also possess an interest in the Multi-modal Large Language Models and their applications for Healthcare.
