Hi there! I am an Assistant Professor at the AI for Science and Engineering Center, Shenzhen Loop Area Institute (SLAI). Previously, I was a Postdocoral Researcher at MMLab @ The Chinese University of Hong Kong, working with Prof. Wanli Ouyang. I was a Research Fellow and received my Ph.D. degree in Computer Science (Ph.D. advisor: Prof. Jing Liao) at City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK) in 2023. I was a remote visiting PhD student with Prof. Saining Xie at NYU in 2023 for 8 months. In a previous life, I obtained my B.Eng. degree in Computer Science and Technology (Elite Program) at South China University of Technology (SCUT) advised by Prof. Shengfeng He.

[Feb. 2026] I’m looking for potential collaborators (e.g., students passionate in AI research). If you are interested in doing a PhD/RA/Intern with me, please feel free to reach out to me via email and maybe we can figure something out together :)

Research

I have broad interests in embodied AI for science, machine learning and computer vision. My research vision is to bridging data-driven intelligence and scientific discovery by architecting autonomous agent-driven scientific ecosystem (Multimodal literature/simulation/experiment) that integrates multi-scale foundation models (General/Domain/Application models), to accelerate the discovery of novel materials and chemical synthesis.

In particular, my recent focuses are on topics:

• Embodied AI & AI for Science
• Multimodal Learning and Multi-scale Modeling
• Robust Learning on Imperfect 3D and Multimodal Data

My research is featured in leading AI venues such as TPAMI, CVPR, and ICCV. These works have frequently been recognized with Oral and Highlight presentations, representing the top 2–3% of submissions at these top-tier conferences.
