Biography
I am an Assistant Professor (ZJU100 Young Professor) in the School of Software Technology at Zhejiang University, China. Before joining ZJU, I was a postdoctoral research fellow at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, working with Prof. Michael R. Lyu.
I obtained my Ph.D. in Computer Science and Technology from Zhejiang University under the supervision of Prof. Jianling Sun. During my Ph.D., I had an unforgettable visiting experience at the Australian National University, advised by Prof. Zhenchang Xing. My research interests span Software Engineering, Knowledge Graph, and Blockchain.
