" Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference."

Welcome to my homepage! I'm Ziyan, a robotics scientist focused on innovating robotic devices for interventions requiring magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guidance, e.g. stereotactic neurosurgery, and cardiac catheterization. My research interests involve surgical robots, image-guided interventions, and magnetic resonance-compatible devices. I received B.Eng in vehicle engineering from Tsinghua University and pursued PhD in surgical robotics in IRIS group at The University of Hong Kong. My work was recognised in several prestigious awards, including Best Conference Paper Award in ICRA’18 (the largest robotics conference), First Place Prize Paper Award in TPEL 2017, and Best Live Demonstration Prize in Surgical Robot Challenge 2016, etc.
