I received my bachelor’s degree from South China University of Technology and my doctorate from the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CASIA) in 2022. I am now working in The State Key Laboratory of Multimodal Artifical Intelligence System as an Research Assistant Professor.

My research interests include Tactile Sensors, Foundation Model for Robotics, and Dexterous Manipulation.
