Huan Huang

Profile

I have a strong professional background in computer science, data science and IT, with over 7 years of industry experience. My skill set covers web development, database design and interactive data visualization. I am currently pursuing a PhD in interdisciplinary neuroscience research, applying state-of-the-art statistical machine learning techniques. I also have a master’s degree in data science with first class honors, where I learned and applied various concepts and tools such as machine learning and deep learning with pytorch and other relevant libraries (numpy, scipy, sklearn, pandas); computational statistics with R; visualization, natural language processing and more.

Experience

PhD student
University of Surrey, UK 10/2022-Present

This project aims to integrate multi-omics data sets from brain tumour experiments using statistical methods. The goal is to advance our knowledge of brain tumour biology. I’m currently working on designing a new algorithm to better understand the brain tumor from the spatial transcriptomics RNA sequencing data. The project is in collaboration with the Department of Brain Sciences at Imperial College London.

Work Projects

Chrome/Firefox extension for multi stock market accounts operation - 04/2021-07/2021, it's a private commercial project built for a client who wanted to place orders, buy/sell/even up, for multiple stock market accounts with a single request. Different accounts go through different IP agents.
China EV Charge Station Map - 04/2018-10/2019, A map for navigating users to their nearest charge station (included several branches) for new energy cars in China. I developed it mainly because it was difficult to find charges after I bought an electronic car. It once ranked top in BAIDU search results for several months before I finally couldn't afford the server any longer. I open-source it on Github.
