Biography

Summary I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Minnesota Dental Research Center for Biomaterials and Biomechanics (MDRCBB), School of Dentistry, University of Minnesota. My work lies at the intersection of computational modeling, biomechanics, and artificial intelligence, with a primary focus on advancing dental and orthodontic research. I completed my Ph.D. in Pattern Recognition and Intelligent Systems at the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and bring over six years of hands-on research experience. At MDRCBB, I am developing robust and efficient computational frameworks to predict orthodontic tooth movement and optimize dental treatment outcomes. My responsibilities span high-impact research, close collaboration with multidisciplinary teams, and student mentorship. I apply AI-driven approaches and hybrid modeling to address challenges in disease diagnostics and personalized dental care. Previously, I contributed to projects optimizing orthodontic force distribution through 3D finite element analysis, and advancing the design of invisible orthodontics. My broader experience bridges AI, engineering, and medical applications, including the diagnosis of breast cancer and hepatitis using computational tools. I have authored 15+ peer-reviewed publications in leading journals.
