I work at School of Mechatronic Engineering, China University of Mining and Technology (中国矿业大学机电工程学院) as a full professor now in China.
I am now working on high-end minimally invasive medical devices and technologies, vibration noise analysis and control, machine hearing, and machine vision. If you are interested in working with our group, please feel free to email me at liuhg@cumt.edu.cn.
I graduated from School of Mechanical Engineering, Shanghai Jiao Tong University (上海交通大学机械与动力工程学院) with a doctor’s degree in 2011. From 2016 to 2017, I did postdoc at the School of the Biological Sciences , University of Cambridge (剑桥大学). From 2023 to 2024, I was a Guest Researcher at the German Hearing Center (德国听觉研究中心), Hannover, Germany.
I have hosted 4 Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) Grants, and published 150+ papers.
