Qin Wang
I am a research scientist at CSIRO Data61 and an adjunct lecturer at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) and the University of Technology Sydney (UTS). I’m broadly interested in technologies that can help achieve decentralised intelligence, such as leveraging blockchain technologies and AI. My research mainly covers the techniques from distributed computing systems, applied cryptography and artificial intelligence.

EDUCATION

PhD career at Swinburne University of Technology, Australia.
Master's study at Beihang University (BUAA), China.
Bachelor’s study at Northwestern Polytechnical Univerisity (NPU), China.
