Academic Profile
 In recent years, I have led one key project under China's National 14th Five-Year R&D Plan and one General Program of the Guangdong Natural Science Foundation. I have participated in one National Art Science Key Project of the National Social Science Fund, three General Programs of the National Natural Science Foundation, and five commissioned projects from enterprises and institutions, with cumulative funding exceeding 3 million RMB. I have published over 50 academic papers domestically and internationally, and hold 10+ authorized invention patents and software copyrights. Recognitions include the First Prize of Guangdong Higher Education Teaching Achievement Award and the First Prize of Guangzhou Science and Technology Progress Award

Graduate Education Philosophy
 In mentoring postgraduate students, I integrate theoretical research with applied practice, emphasizing innovation and entrepreneurship. Key research directions focus on:

1. Human Factors Experience Design and Evaluation Methods

2. Digital Design of Wearable Products

3. Ergonomics Data Development and Design Applications for the Elderly Population

   
   

International Collaboration
 Sustained partnerships with overseas institutions include:

• Initiating the 1st International Symposium on Design and Human Factors (2013);

• Research collaboration with the Human Factors Group, Loughborough Design School (UK, July 2014);

• Visiting scholarship at the Human-Computer Interaction Team, University of Birmingham (2015);

• Academic exchanges with Loughborough University and University of Edinburgh (2017);

• Recent engagements with Loughborough University and University of Stirling (2024).
  Graduates from our team have pursued PhD studies in Human Factors Engineering at Loughborough University (with CSC scholarship) and Hong Kong Polytechnic University (full scholarship)
