The general theme of my research is
Computational Biology: abstract and biophysical models of single neuron, neural networks, stochastic and nonlinear dynamics, data mining and mathematical physics
1985 - 1993 Received all my academic degrees (BSc, MSc, PhD) from Probability and Statistics Dept., Peking University, P.R, China
1993 - 1996 Supported by the A. von Humboldt Foundation of Germany and CNR of Italy, I spent around three years in Germany and Italy
1996 - May 2000 Principle Investigator (project leader, deputy head of the Computational Neuroscience Lab.), The Babraham Institute, Cambridge, CB2 4AT, UK
June 2000 - December 2004 Reader, Department of Informatics, Sussex University, UK.
2005 June - 2008 May Visiting Professor, Department of Informatics, Sussex University, UK.
2005 Jan - now, Professor, Centre for Scientific Computing and Computer Science, Warwick University, UK
