Biography
Dr. Zhang joined Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in Sept. 2005
where she is now
Tencent Professor of Engineering
and Chair Professor
of the Department of Computer Science and
Engineering. She is also serving as the co-director of Huawei-HKUST innovation
lab and the director of digital life research center of HKUST. Before that, she
was in Microsoft Research Asia, Beijing, from July 1999, where she was the
research manager of the Wireless and Networking Group. Dr. Zhang has published
more than 400 refereed papers in international leading journals and key
conferences.
She is the inventor of more than 50 granted and 20 pending International patents. Her current
research interests include Internet of Things (IoT), smart health, mobile
computing and sensing, wireless networking, as well as cyber security.
She is a
Fellow of
the IEEE
and the Hong Kong Academy of Engineering Science (HKAES).
Dr. Zhang has received MIT TR100 (MIT Technology Review) world’s top young
innovator award. She also received the Best Asia Pacific (AP) Young Researcher
