I am a Research Fellow at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), working with Prof. Yang Liu. Previously, I worked as a Research Fellow at University College London (UCL), under the supervision of Prof. Mark Harman and Prof. Federica Sarro.

I received my Ph.D. from Peking University (PKU) in 2021, and was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Hong Mei and Prof. Xuanzhe Liu. My Ph.D dissertation won the Outstanding Doctoral Dissertation Award of China Computer Federation. I received my B.S. in Computer Science and B.A. in Economics from PKU in 2016.

My research interests mainly focus on Software Engineering for/with AI, Trustworthy AI, and Data Science. I received WWW 2019 Best Full Paper Award, ACM SIGSOFT Distinguished Paper Award, ASE 2023 Distinguished PC Member Award, and ICSE 2025 Distinguished Reviewer Award.
