I work as a distinguished professor at the College of Mathematical Medicine, Zhejiang Normal University (ZJNU). My research lab at ZJNU will be hiring for research roles on Bayesian deep learning (BDL), topological deep learning (TDL), and applications of machine learning on biomedical research and healthcare. The new roles will be advertised in the near future. At the same time, I have ventured into entrepreneurship research as the founder and co-CEO of PolyShape, a startup company with the mission to improve healthcare through the power of machine learning, research consultancy, and research and development. PolyShape aims to become a multinational corporation.

Bayesian inference and topological data analysis provide established machine learning tools. However, deep learning poses scalability challenges to these tools. My research focuses on BDL and TDL, which aim to make Bayesian and topological approaches to deep learning feasible. In the contemporary era of AI, BDL models can quantify uncertainties and assess risks, and TDL models can extract structure from big data. Healthcare is a safety-critical domain of application that interests me, as uncertainty quantification and elicitation of structure from biomedical data matter.
