About Me

I am a final-year Ph.D. candidate at Department of Computer Science and Engineering, The Chinese University of Hong Kong. I conduct research to understand, detect, and validate vulnerabilities with automated and scalable approaches. Recently, I focus on fuzz testing, symbolic execution and their co-design.

I am fortunate to be supervised by Prof. Wei Meng at CUHK. Prior that, I received my bachelor's degree from University of Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2019. I also had fruitful internship experience working with Prof. Chao Zhang in Tsinghua University and Prof. Kai Chen in Chinese Academy of Sciences.
