Fremont, CA

I am a Senior Systems Engineer at iota Biosciences, where I develop and integrate advanced signal/image processing and machine learning solutions for next-generation biomedical devices. I finished my Ph.D. in the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Previsouly, I obtained my B.E. degree in 2017 from the Southeast University and my M.S. degree in 2018 from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.

I’m deeply passionate about signal and image processing, deep learning, and system integration. This passion drives my work to bridge the gap between innovative research and practical, impactful applications. Furthermore, I love developing innovative algorithm that transform raw data into actionable insights and build end-to-end system around that. This pursuit fuels my dedication to pushing the boundaries of technology and creating innovative solutions for real-world challenges.

news

Oct 03, 2024 Check out our latest TMI paper 3D-PAULM (co first-authored) demonstrating a 3D imaging system that seamlessly integrates photoacoustic computed tomography and ultrasound localization microscopy into a single device.
Apr 23, 2024 Check out our latest TUFFC paper introducing a novel 3D shear wave elastography (SWE) method based on 2D row-column-addressing (RCA) array. To the best of our knowledge this is the first time that acoustic radiation force-based 3D SWE is demonstrated on 2D RCAs.
3D ARF-SWE imaging
