Graduated with Ph.D.
He received his BS and MS degrees in 2001 from the Department of Engineering Physics at Tsinghua University, Beijing, China. Subsequently he became a graduate student at the University of Michigan in the Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences department.
His research included muon tracking in semiconductor gamma-ray detectors, gamma-ray polarimetry detection, Compton image reconstruction using 3D position-sensitive CdZnTe detectors, energy-imaging integrated system modeling for Compton cameras, and gamma-ray detection sensitivity improvement using imaging capability.
