28 November 2023 A Big Milestone: I passed my PhD viva!
After a 4.25-hour in-depth viva, my efforts in 4.25 years have been finally converted into a big milestone - a PhD degree. I have tons of gratitude to my amazing supervisors Dr. Sebastian Halder and Dr. Elia Valentini. Especially, I hope my work can help more people gain more with no pain.
I attended the BCI Meeting in Brussels, Belgium, and Lasertalks in Hamburg, Germany in June. After that, I went to Sydney, Australia in July to attend EMBC 2023. In all of them, I presented some parts of my work or introduced my research during PhD systematically. My work presented at EMBC can be found on this page.
Remarkably, I won the student travel award at the BCI Meeting for the second time (The first one was assigned in 2021).
13 May 2023 Second Place in the PhD Student Open-Class Competition
I introduced the basic principles and applications in the AI era of EEG in the final of PhD Student Seminar Competition organised by Redwood Academy (红杉学社). I was so glad to hear the feedback and questions from the experts and public audiences from various fields. And fortunately, I won the SECOND PLACE among 16 participants!
08 October 2022 First Prize of Student Poster Presentation at BCS Meeting
At the annual meeting of British Classification Society (British Data Science Society now) held in Colchester, I presented my work on the classification of individuals in pain-related conditions from EEG signals, which is the basis of my current work in the adversarial model for pain prediction. And with great pleasure, I was selected as the winner of the First Prize!
01 October 2022 Public Seminar about Neural Engineering in Redwood Academy
I introduced some fundamental knowledge in neural engineering as a competitor in the PhD Student Open-Class Competition organized by Redwood Academy (红杉学社), which attracted more than 55k audience on Sohu TV (搜狐视频). [Click here to watch (in Mandarin Chinese)]
In EMBC 2022 held in Glasgow (11-15 July 2022), I presented my work 'Classification of Tonic Pain Experience based on Phase Connectivity in the Alpha Frequency Band of the Electroencephalogram using Convolutional Neural Networks' and did the work as a session chair for the first time.
Introducing our research to the public in the Royal Society is inspiring and exciting, and the experience to talk with people with diverse ages, genders and backgrounds living in UK is memorable.
Except for sharing my research, I got to know lots of amazing new friends in Sweden!
