Boying Li is currently a Research Fellow at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, working with Prof. Jianfei Cai. Her research also involves close collaboration with Prof. Ian Reid and Prof. Hamid Rezatofighi. She obtained her Ph.D. degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) in 2023, Shanghai, China, under the supervision of Prof. Wenxian Yu and Prof. Danping Zou.

Open to collaboration with self-motivated students. I am always looking for motivated Master’s and PhD candidates, please feel free to contact me at boying.li@monash.edu.
