I am a second-year PhD student working with Prof. Haiyan Wu in the Affective, Neuroscience and Decision-making Laboratory (A. N. D Lab) at the Centre for Cognitive and Brain Sciences and Department of Psychology, University of Macau (Macao, China).

Before that, I was a research assistant supervised by Prof. Yixuan Ku in the Memory and Emotion Laboratory (MELab) at the Department of Psychology, Sun Yat-Sen University (SYSU, Guangzhou, China). Before joining this lab, I worked as an NLP engineer in the Department of Big Data and Artificial Intelligence at Tianpeng Technology Co., Ltd (Guangzhou, China).

I received a B.E. degree in Information Security in 2016 and an M.E. degree in Software Engineering in 2018, both from SYSU.

Enlightened by Heinrich Heine's famous quote: 'Thought precedes action, as lighting does thunder', I devoted myself to theoretical research after familiarising myself with empirical research and application. Specifically, I aspire to contribute to a 'virtuous circle' in which shared insights into artificial intelligence and social psychology will advance the development of both fields.

Research interests: Social cognition, social neuroscience, mentalising, artificial social intelligence, natural language processing
