I will study in Al thrust under the Information Hub at HKUST(GZ) as an MPhil in the fall of 2025, working on interdisciplinary applications of AI and multimodal LLM. If you are seeking any form of academic cooperation, please feel free to email me at l15759278244@gmail.com.

My research interest includes interdisciplinary applications of artificial intelligence, such as Bioinformatics, AI-Transportation intersection and AI for Healthcare. I have published 3 papers and have 5 more under review at international interdisciplinary AI journals. I am also highly interested in multimodal large language models (LLMs) and have worked on related projects, including the design of a tri-modal large model that integrates foot pressure, joint angles, and physician prompts.
