I am currently an associate professor at the State Key Laboratory of Virtual Reality Technology and Systems, Beihang University. Prior to this, I served as a senior research manager at SenseTime Research, where I led an R&D team in developing cutting-edge medical products. I received my Ph.D. in 2018 from Beihang University, under the joint supervision of Prof. Aimin Hao (Beihang University) and Prof. Hong Qin (Stony Brook University). From 2019 to 2021, I pursued postdoctoral research at the iMoon: Intelligent Media and Cognition Lab, Tsinghua University, working with Prof. Yue Gao. My research focuses on computer graphics, computer vision, and artificial intelligence, aiming to develop computational methods that address fundamental challenges in healthcare and biomedicine.

Research
My research integrates artificial intelligence and virtual reality with computer vision and geometric computing to model biological systems, analyze multimodal biomedical data, and understand complex anatomical structures and surgical environments. Our goal is to advance biomedical discovery, quantitative diagnosis, and intelligent intervention.
Virtual Cells & Computational Biology
We develop computational models that integrate multimodal data to characterize biological states across molecular and cellular scales and predict responses to genetic and pharmacological perturbations. By combining representation learning with mechanistic priors, our research aims to infer regulatory mechanisms, identify therapeutic targets, and facilitate drug discovery.

Computational Pathology
We develop multimodal, multiscale methods that link tissue morphology with molecular profiles and clinical data. By characterizing disease-associated patterns across tissue and cellular scales, our research supports interpretable cancer diagnosis and prognosis, as well as evidence-grounded pathology reporting.

Medical Image Computing
We develop learning-based methods for segmenting, registering, and reconstructing anatomical structures across medical imaging modalities. Our work integrates data-efficient learning with geometric and topological constraints to produce anatomically consistent representations for quantitative phenotyping, disease assessment, longitudinal analysis, and patient-specific treatment planning.

3D Vision & Geometric Computing
We develop geometric representations and learning methods for reconstructing, analyzing, deforming, and generating 3D shapes and dynamic scenes. By integrating geometric priors with data-driven models, our research seeks to preserve structural fidelity and temporal coherence across shape modeling, motion capture, animation, and immersive simulation.
