I received the B.Eng. degree in automation engineering and the Ph.D. degree in control science and engineering from Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China, in 2014 and 2019, respectively. During 2017–2018, I was a visiting doctoral student at the Bernoulli Institute for Math., CS and AI, University of Groningen, the Netherlands. Between 2019 and 2022, I held Postdoctoral positions with the School of Electrical Engineering, Tel Aviv University, Israel, and the Division of Decision and Control Systems, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden. In 2023, I joined Xi’an Jiaotong University. My research interests include contraction theory, passivity-based control, networked systems, and robot navigation.

It seems sometimes that through a preoccupation with science, we acquire a firmer hold over the vicissitudes of life and meet them with greater calm, but in reality we have done no more than to find a way to escape from our sorrows. — Hermann Minkowski in a letter to David Hilbert
