Hi there! I’m a first-year ECE Ph.D. Student at Cornell University, and I’m honored to be advised by Prof. Mert Sabuncu and Prof. Qingyu Zhao.

My research is now focusing on AI for Medicine especially in 3D vision learning and understanding, previously I’m working on Computer Vision at CMU CS and AI for Healthcare at Georgia Tech and Emory. I’m passionate about developing intelligent systems that can make a meaningful impact in healthcare.

If you’re interested in research collaborations or have any questions, please feel free to contact me at: jouiney666 [at] gmail [dot] com.
