I'm currently working between PKU and UCL, where I explore the exciting field of brain-inspired computing 🧠🤖 — from neural coding and perception to neuromorphic systems and high-speed sensing. I'm particularly interested in building intelligent systems that take inspiration from how the brain sees and acts.

I've led several projects related to neuromorphic cameras and spike-based visual computing 🎥⚡️. I'm very lucky to be mentored by Prof. Tiejun Huang and Prof. Karl Friston, whose guidance continues to shape my thinking💡.

I also serve as a reviewer for conferences and journals such as ICML/ICLR/NeurIPS/ICCV/ECCV/CVPR/TIP and Neural Networks. I'm always open to chatting and collaborating on related topics. Feel free to reach out if you're working in this space — would love to connect! 🤝
