👋 Hi! My name is Falong Fan, a PhD student at Electrical & Computer Engineering Department at University of Arizona (UofA), under the supervision of Prof. Bo Liu. My research interests lie in artificial intelligence, specifically in multi-agent systems and their applications, such as healthcare and robustness.

Before starting my PhD journey at UofA, I earned my Master’s degree in The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen, advised by Prof. Ruimao Zhang. Prior to that, I obtained my Bachelor’s in University of Science and Technology Beijing, advised by Prof. Sen Wu. In non-academic contexts, I am into cooking, sports such as badminton, swimming, and the gym.
