I have recently joined the School of Artificial Intelligence at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen (CUHK-SZ) and am actively expanding my research group.

I am looking for self-motivated students interested in Trustworthy Machine Learning, with a particular emphasis on its intersection with Large Language Models (LLMs), specifically LLM explainability. Recently, my group has also been exploring the application of LLMs to high-impact real-world domains, including law, finance, and bioinformatics. You can check our recent publications here.

Ph.D. Students: Students from Computer Science/Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Statistics, Mathematics, Physics or other related disciplines are strongly encouraged to apply! Students from other disciplines, but showing strong interests, creativity and learning initiatives, are also welcome to apply! For Ph.D. applicants, please also apply to the PhD in Artificial Intelligence program at https://sai.cuhk.edu.cn/en/node/35.

MPhil Students: I have several positions available for Master of Philosophy students. Please review the program details here https://sai.cuhk.edu.cn/en/node/35.

Interns: I have positions for remote and in-person interns and visiting students. My past interns have secured first-author publications in top-tier venues such as ACL, EMNLP, and Cell Patterns, etc.
