I am a research fellow at Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health at National University of Singapore, with Prof. Mengling Feng. Previously, I defended my Ph.D. in College of Computing and Data Science, Nanyang Technological University in 2025.
My research interests include:
- Graph Representation Learning: graph classification, out-of-distribution generalization, expressiveness of GNNs
- Brain Network Analysis: fMRI, multi-modal brain networks, neurodegenerative disorders
My PhD thesis made some early attempts on these problems. I do believe these fields make invaluable contributions to the real world.
