I am currently a Junior Research Assistant at Department of Electronic Engineering, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, advised by Prof. Hongliang Ren. I collaborate closely with Long Bai at our MEDICAL MECHATRONICS Lab. From this August, I will be a Ph.D. student for the CUHK-HUAWEI Joint PhD Program. Previously, I received the M. Sc. degree in Department of Electronic Engineering from The Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2023, advised by Prof. Hongliang Ren. I also received my Bachelor degree in Automation at College of Mechatronics and Control Engineering, Shenzhen University, advised by Prof. Xiaopin Zhong.
My research interests include computer vision and its applications in medical image analysis and surgical robotic perception. I recently work on large vision-language models and downstream surgical robot control.
