Professional Experiences

Before joining CUHK(Shenzhen) in 2015, I had been:

  • Assistant Professor at Institute for Interdisciplinary Information Sciences, Tsinghua University, from 2012 to 2015.
  • Postdoctoral Fellow and Research Associate at the Institute of Network Coding, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, from 2010 to 2012.

I co-founded n-hop technologies in 2018 to develop coding-based network communication technologies.

Research

My research is mainly in the area of information theory and coding theory, including their applications in network communication and computation. Some of research topics we have done are further explained in the following links:

I am also spending more efforts to theories related to security, quantum information, and AI.

See my publications listed on Google Scholar and dblp.

Hiring

Students

MPhil students are self-financed. PhD students have full financial support.

  • For theoretical research, exceptional mathematical skills (beyond mere knowledge) are essential.
  • For system/experimental research, strong programming and hands-on skills are required.

If you are interested in quantum information, please reach out to Prof. Masahito Hayashi, with whom we are co-supervising PhD students.

A master's degree is not required for admission to the PhD program. For detailed admission requirements, please visit the CUHK(SZ) website.

Research Assistants

We welcome undergraduate students from CUHK(SZ) to participate in our research projects, and they can also earn credits through capstone projects and independent study. We also accept visiting students from other universities who are interested in our PhD program.
