Han Zhang

All for Robotics.

I am an incoming PhD student in Electrical Engineering at Stanford University, advised by Prof. Shuran Song and part of the REALab.

I was a Co-Founder of Dexta Robotics Inc.

Previously, I obtained my bachelor’s degree from Tsinghua University, with a solid background in Electronic Engineering and Mechanical Engineering, where I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Huazhe Xu.

During my undergraduate years, I served as an operator of the Tsinghua Amateur Radio Club BY1QH, and led Team Tinker in the RoboCup @Home Open Platform competition.

My research interest lies in robotics: design & build novel robots, robot learning, and manipulation.
