Professor of Management Science
Director of the MPhil in Management Programme
BSc (Anhui Normal University), MSc (Chinese Academy of Science), PhD (University of New South Wales)
My research interests include healthcare operations management, supply chain management and revenue management, for which I build mathematical models, uncover managerial insights, and develop computational methods. I’m keen to design and analyse systems and processes that can utilise limited resources such as hospital beds and medical staff.
I’m a member of the Operations and Technology Management subject group at Cambridge Judge Business School, which focuses on practice-based research through partner organisations to address a wide spectrum of management challenges.
