Prior to my industry experience, I held a Lecturer (Assistant Professor equivalent) position at Royal Holloway University of London (2019-2021). My academic career also includes a postdoctoral fellowship at TU Darmstadt (2017-2019) in the Ubiquitous Knowledge Processing (UKP) Lab under the supervision of Prof. Iryna Gurevych, an Assistant Professorship at Chinese Academy of Sciences (2015-2017), and doctoral research at Imperial College London (2011-2015) in the Computing, Logic and Argumentation (CLArg) Lab with Prof. Francesca Toni. For further details please refer to my CV.
Public service: I am actively involved in academic service, including co-founding the Eval4NLP workshop series. For conference reviewing, I served as Publication Co-Chair for EMNLP 2020 and Area Chair for ACL 2020, in addition to serving on the Programme Committees of major AI/ML conferences such as NeurIPS, ICLR, ACL, EMNLP, NAACL, IJCAI, KR, and AAAI.
