Zhaolin Wang

Welcome! I am a Research Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at The University of Hong Kong (HKU). Prior to joining HKU in 2025, I was a Postdoctoral Research Assistant at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL), where I also received my Ph.D. in 2024 under the supervision of Prof. Yuanwei Liu.

My research lies at the intersection of wireless communications, artificial intelligence, and electromagnetism.
