I work as an assistant professor in AI and sustainable industries. My current research interest is how to innovatively develop and deploy emerging AI technologies for the unique physical principles and economic mechanisms of sustainable industries, especially for future energy and environment systems, to combat climate change.

I am also passionate about popularizing emerging science and how to advance engineering education. I am proud of my classical Oriental cultural background. I am easygoing and like parties, outdoor activities, playing tennis, classical music, painting, and calligraphy.

Welcome to all PhD, MSc and undergraduate students looking for supervision and collaboration.
