CAT PERSON ENFP

Hi! I’m Jerry (ZHANG Fu), a PhD student at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University and a researcher in Human–Computer Interaction (HCI) with strong software and electronics engineering experience. While having a general interest over a wide range of HCI topics, I am particularly passionate about AI in clinical medicine and healthcare, leveraging HCI power to bring a better life and intervention to those suffering from mental and physical issues.

My work currently focus on HCI driven mental interventions

In the past, I have worked with human robot interactions, HCI for accessibility.

Off work, I travel, in particular, to rent a car and drive around. I do watch football as huge arsenal fan. I enjoy playing music instruments as well, specifically, piano, clarinet and harmonica.
