I am now a researcher in the Robust and Secure
Systems group at NEC Research Labs,
Princeton since Aug. 2010. I received my PhD degree in Dec. 2009 from Northwestern
University. Before joining Northwestern
University, I completed my B.S. in the Department of Physics and my M.S. in
the Department of Computer Science & Technology both at the Tsinghua University
in China.
I have broad interests in security, networking and system related research. My recent research covers network security, web security, cloud security,
smartphone security, social network security, network measurement and
distributed system diagnosis.
