Hi! I’m Bosi Zhang, a Ph.D. student at the City University of Hong Kong, under the supervision of Prof. Guangdong Bai. Previously, I received my M.S. degree from the Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST), where I was supervised by Prof. Haoyu Wang and co-supervised by Ningyu He. I obtained my B.Eng. degree in Cyber Science and Engineering from HUST.

My research interests lie in LLM for SE (Software Engineering/Security), Program Analysis, Formal Methods, and Automated Testing.
