I am currently undertaking a PhD student at the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, The University of Manchester, UK, supervised by Dr. Zhonghua Zheng (Assistant Professor in Data Science & Environmental Analytics), Chair Prof. David Topping (Professor of Digital Environment, Fellow of the Alan Turing Institute), and Chair Prof. Hugh Coe (Professor of Atmospheric Composition).

My research focuses on particle-resolved aerosol dynamic modelling, cloud parcel modelling, nanoplastic pollutant, and machine learning.
