🧍‍♂️ Biography

  Hi! I am currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Connecticut, working under the guidance of Prof. Junbo Zhao. I earned my Ph.D. from the University of Connecticut in 2024. Prior to that, I received both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Electrical Engineering from Wuhan University in 2017 and 2020, respectively. My research focuses on uncertainty quantification in power systems, specifically in identification, monitoring, and stability analysis.

  I have been recognized for my contributions to the field, including receiving the Outstanding Reviewer Award from IEEE Transactions on Power Systems in 2021, 2022, and 2023. Additionally, I was honored with the Best Journal Paper Award from the International Journal of Electrical Power & Energy Systems in 2022, and the Best Conference Paper Award from IEEE Power & Energy Society General Meetings in 2021, 2022, and 2024, as well as the 11th International Conference on Innovative Smart Grid Technologies (Asia) in 2022.
