Chuhan Wang
Hi there! 😄 I'm Chuhan (you can also call me Holly), a Ph.D. student at the
University of Notre Dame,
fortunate to be advised by Prof. Meng Jiang
and affiliated with the DM2 Lab.
Before that, I was a master's student at UC San Diego,
where I worked closely with Prof. Jingbo Shang.
My research focuses on multimodal reasoning in physical AI,
exploring how AI systems can perceive, reason about, and
interact with the physical world through the integration of
vision, language, and action.
Feel free to reach out for any form of communication or collaboration!
