Biography

• I am an Assistant Professor in BME of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Before that I was a Research Associate in University of Cambridge and Postdoctoral Researcher in the University of Hong Kong. I have completed my PhD study at the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, supervised by Prof. Pheng-Ann Heng and Prof. Chi-Wing Fu. Previously, I received the B. Eng degree from Honors College in Northwestern Polytechnical University.
• My research interests include Deep Learning for Medical Image Analysis, specificlly in multimodaly learning and generalization learning.
