I am a Ph.D. student at McGill–Mila working with Prof. Xue (Steve) Liu and Prof. Christopher Pal. I graduated (bachelor) from University of Science and Technology of China as an outstanding graduate (73/1824 ≈ 4%). Besides, I interned at Microsoft Research Asia, Tencent, and Baidu, and served as a mentor at Amgen, Valence Discovery and AbCellera. I am currently interested in generative modeling, AI for Science, meta-learning and blockchain.
