I am a final-year doctoral student in the School of Cyber Science and Technology at Shandong University, advised by Prof. Wenrui Diao. I received a scholarship from Shandong University and was a visiting scholar at George Mason University (advised by Asst. Prof. Xiaokuan Zhang). I am interested in the blockchain and Web3 security.
