👨💻 About Me
Hi, I’m Lilin Wang, a second-year Master’s student in Electrical Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania.
I’m a Research Assistant at the Perelman School of Medicine, advised by Prof. Zhi Huang in the Huang Lab. My current work centers on TissueLab [website] [], a co-evolving agentic AI system for medical imaging analysis.
I received my B.Eng. in Data Science and Big Data Technology, jointly awarded by the University of Liverpool and Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University.
My research focuses on AI for healthcare, with particular interest in medical image analysis and large language models (LLMs) for clinical and psychological applications. I’m interested in how intelligent systems can connect human expertise, data, and computation to support diagnosis, discovery, and clinical decision-making.
I hope to contribute to building intelligent systems that help make healthcare more accessible, reliable, and human-centered. Always happy to connect and collaborate! 😊

More Than Work
When I’m coding or reading papers, I’m usually with Xiaoman Xia — my furry little boss. She sits on my keyboard, supervises every Git commit, and makes sure I never get overwhelmed. 🐱💻
I love Lana Del Rey’s music and the aesthetic of her work. I’ve been experimenting with capturing similar vibes in my own photos and videos.
I’ve also gotten into film photography lately. Still learning, but I love the process and I’m always looking to get better at it.
