Recruit

I am always interested to recruit self-motivated students to join my group as (online or offline) interns. I have opennings for full-time {Researchers, Research Assistants} as of 2024-12, and will have PhD positions in 2025. A more detailed description can be found at this Zhihu post.

Drop me an email if you want to have a chat.
