About Me
Hi 👋🏻! I recently graduated from Peking University with a B.S. in Intelligence Science and Technology from the School of Electronics Engineering and Computer Science (EECS).
At PKU-Agibot Lab, I worked with Yuanfei Wang, Ruihai Wu, and Xiaojie Zhang under the supervision of Prof. Hao Dong.
At the Human-Centered Robotic Lab, National University of Singapore, I worked with Zhenhao Huang, Siyuan Luo, and Ziqiu Zeng, and was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Fan Shi.
I aspire to pursue interesting, insightful, and fundamental research. My current interests lie in manipulation dexterity and robustness, as well as physics-based simulation.
