About Me
I am currently a tenure-track assistant professor at the School of Cyber Science and Technology in Zhejiang University. My research interests include web security and software security. Recently, I have been focusing on investigating security threats on the web and other related applications, e.g., WebView-based mobile apps.
I received my Ph.D. degree from the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2022, where I was fortunate to be supervised by Prof. Wei Meng. Prior to CUHK, I received my B.Eng in Computer Science and Technology from Wuhan University (Hongyi Talent Class) in 2018.
Recruiment
I am looking for self-motivated Ph.D. and master students who have strong programming skills. You may find more information about our application and admission process HERE.
Please note that our group works on technically challenging problems. I would provide support and help whenever necessary. In the meanwhile, I expect the Ph.D. students to have solid background in computer science and be willing to learn. If you are well prepared, feel free to contact me.
