Hi, I am Yuwei (Evelyn) Zhang, a first-year PhD student in the Mobile Systems Research Lab at the University of Cambridge, supervised by Prof. Cecilia Mascolo. I am a member of Jesus College and a Cambridge Trust Scholar. My research is jointly supported by Nokia Corporation and Cambrdige Trust. I am generally interested in machine learning for health, and my current research project focuses on federated learning for trustworthy healthcare applications.

I received my bachelor degree from the School of Computer Science at Fudan University, where I have been very fortunate to work closely with Prof. Yang Chen on social computing.
