I am a Computer Science Ph.D. student at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign advised by Prof. Jimeng Sun. Before that, I earned my B.Eng and MS degree in Automation at Tsinghua University. I am also working closely with Prof. Sheng Wang and Dr. Lijun Wu.

My research interests revolve around AI4Science, including

  • Natural Language Processing (especially in the healthcare domain)
  • Knowledge Graph & Large Language Models
  • Multi-modal Learning (text, gene, drug, protein, etc.)
  • Drug Discovery

I am currently seeking research-oriented internship opportunities for the summer of 2025. Please contact me if you have any recruitment openings.
