🎄 About Me

Hi there! Here is Shiduo Zhang, you can call me Joey as well. I am a second-year master’s student in School of Computer Science at Fudan University, advised by Prof.Xipeng Qiu. My research interests focus on embodied AI, particularly exploring the intersection of foundation models and robotics. Previously, I obtained my Bachelor’s degree from Tongji University, and spent an unforgettable year and a half as a research assistant intern at MARS Lab, Tsinghua IIIS and Shanghai QiZhi Institute during my undergraduate studies, advised by Prof.Hang Zhao.

Personally, I am dedicated to addressing truly meaningful research problems, and I tend to focus on work that aligns with first principles. The most fundamental issues I currently believe in are Scaling and Search. Feel free to contact me anytime if you share the same passion for these problems.
