Biography

I am a Research Scientist at Google Research, focusing on multimodal generative models and large multimodal language models. Prior to joining Google, I was a lead research scientist at JEN Music AI, where I led the development of text-to-music AI systems, built and managed the team, and spearheaded the creation of the JEN-1 series models. I hold a Ph.D. from the Australian Artificial Intelligence Institute (AAII) at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), along with Ms.Eng and B.Eng degrees from Shanghai Jiao Tong University. My research interests span large-scale pre-training, transformer- and diffusion-based foundation models, with a particular emphasis on advancing AI-generated content across multiple modalities. My work has been published in top-tier venues including TPAMI, NeurIPS, CVPR, ICCV. I can work freely in the United States and Australia/New Zealand, and I welcome collaboration opportunities in both academia and industry.
