About Me - Zhenglong SUN, also known as Kurt
I received my B.Eng. degree with a specialization in Biomedical Engineering from the School of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, and M.Eng. in Mechatronic System and Design from the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, of Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in 2005 and 2007 respectively. In 2008, I worked as a Visiting Scholar at the Engineering Research Center for Computer-Integrated Surgical Systems and Technology (ERC CISST), at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland, USA. After that, I continued to pursue his Ph.D. degree under the supervision of Prof Phee Soo Jay, at NTU and successfully completed his defense in 2013. Prior to CUHK(SZ), I was with the SUTD-MIT International Design Center, at Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD), as a research fellow working with Prof Foong Shaohui.
Currently, I am an Assistant Professor of the School of Science and Engineering at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen, jointly appointed at the School of Artificial Intelligence, and an Affliated Member of the School of Medicine.
