Biography

I am currently an associate professor in the Technology Center of Software Engineering (TCSE) at the Institute of Software Chinese Academy of Sciences (ISCAS). My research sits at the intersection of software engineering and artificial intelligence (SE + AI), with a focus on creating automated, intelligent software development processes. By integrating classical program analysis techniques with cutting-edge code language models, I aim to advance key aspects of the software lifecycle (including coding, testing, and maintenance) toward greater autonomy, reliability, and efficiency.

Previous Employment & Educational Experience

Before I came to ISCAS, I spent two years as a post-doctoral associate affiliated with the SEKE lab in the Key Laboratory of High Confidence Software Technologies, Ministry of Education at the Peking University (PKU), hosted by Prof. Zhi Jin and Prof. Ge Li.
I received my Ph.D. degree in Computer Science and Technology from the School of Computer Science (National Pilot Software Engineering School) at the Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT), advised by Prof. Yunzhan Gong. Before that I obtained my B.E. degree in Network Engineering from BUPT.
