PhD student


I received my B.Sc. in Statistics from Xidian University and an M.Sc. in Neurobiology from Fudan University, where I worked on pattern recognition methods for spatial transcriptomics data (2020–2023). After graduation, I joined industry as an AI engineer specializing in computer vision. My research interests center on developing computational methods to uncover biological insights and improve human health. In 2025, I joined the CDGG group led by Prof. Timothy Frayling as an assistant doctorant to study the genetics and genomics of heart disease in patients with diabetes. Previously, I worked as a research assistant at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, developing multimodal approaches for depression detection using speech and ECG data.
