Fuchuan Qu
I am a PhD student at City University of Hong Kong, with research interests in bioinformatics and machine learning. Born and raised in Wuhan, I developed my passion for coding during primary school, when I first tried programming in Java. After earning double degrees in computer science and economics as an undergraduate, I entered the PhD program to pursue my dream of decoding the language of life using cutting-edge machine learning techniques.
