Hi, I'm Yawen Huang.

I am a senior research scientist at Tencent. I obtained my Ph.D. degree at the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering of the University of Sheffield, under the supervision of Prof. Ling Shao and Prof. Alejandro Frangi. I receieved my MSc from the University of Sheffield, working with Prof. Ling Shao.

My research interests lie at the intersection of computer vision and machine learning, especially their applicaitons in medical imaging and healthcare.
