A bit more about me: I started my academic career at the University of Regina in November 2013. It has been a rather fulfilling path to keep growing and help my students to grow. I am passionate about teaching and research. I enjoy life-long learning and personal development. I am enthusiastic to help my students to develop a successful career, achieve personal excellence and enjoy a fulfilling life. I likes philosophy, nature, culture and traveling. I am fascinated about human cognitive function and psychological behaviors. I have been working together with my research team to design bio-inspired Artificial Neural Network for fast computing and power efficient Artificial Intelligence (AI). I am recruiting graduate students who is self-motivated to challenge and extend their potentials, and has genuine interest in research.
