Bio

I am currently a Ph.D. Candiate in the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at University of Toronto. I am fortunate to work with Prof. Xinyu Liu.

My research lies at the intersection of micro-/nano robotics and artificial intelligence –with a special focus on biomedical applications. My research interests include Computer vision, 3D reconstruction, Generative models, Reinforcement learning, LLM agents, and Autonomous Robot/AI scientist.
