Biography
I am a 4-th year undergraduate at University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC) and an incoming PhD student (2025 Fall) at Peking University and Shanghai AI Lab, advised by Prof. Ning Ding and Prof. Bowen Zhou. I am also fortunate to work with Dr. Ganqu Cui and Prof. Yu Cheng.
My research interests lie at Post-training for Large Language Model, especially in building Large Reasoning Model with Reinforcement Learning
Please feel free to contact me if you’re interested in relevant research or would like to discuss potential collaborations!
