Welcome to My Homepage!

I am a PhD Candidate under the supervision of Prof. Jinman Kim, Dr. Euijoon (Osmond) Ahn, Prof. Mohamed Khadra and Prof. (David) Dagan Feng at the Biomedical Data Analysis and Visualisation (BDAV) Lab, School of Computer Science, The University of Sydney. Prior to this, I received my B. Eng degree from Northwestern Polytechnical University, China, 2019.

My research focuses on developing advanced deep learning models for multimodal medical image analysis, aiming to enhance image segmentation, detection, and classification, ultimately benefiting cancer diagnosis and prognosis.
