Postdoctoral Researcher,
IE Dept., CUHK

Since 2023, I have had the opportunity to participate in the preparation and execution of multiple funding projects, amounting to a total of ~49.8 million HKD. Among these, ~26.4 million HKD are currently approved or awaiting results. I have also gained hands-on experience in preparing large-scale collaborative proposals for CRF-2024 and CRF-2025, in collaboration with PIs from CUHK, HKUST, HKU, Imperial College London, Aalborg University, and Singapore University of Technology and Design.
