I am currently a PhD student at the Robot Assisted Living Lab, University of York, supervised by Dr. Jihong Zhu, Prof. Andy Tyrrell and Prof. Ian J.S. Fairlamb. I was a research intern at Tencent Robotics X, supervised by Dr. Tingguang Li. I obtained my bachelor and master degree with first-class honours in Computer Science at UCL, supervised by Prof. Jun Wang.
My research interests lie in robot learning, focusing on robotic manipulation and perception. I am currently exploring imitation learning and developing methods enabling robots to conduct chemistry experiments. My work aims to advance intelligent and adaptive robotic systems.Updates
