About Me

Junfei Li received the B.Eng. degree in communication engineering from Chongqing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Chongqing, China, in 2017 and the Ph.D. degree in Engineering Systems & Computing under the supervision of Prof. Simon X. Yang from the University of Guelph, Ontario, Canada in 2023. During my Ph.D. program, I was appointed as a Graduate Research Assistant for the NSERC Discover research project in the Advanced Robotics and Intelligent Systems (ARIS) Laboratory. Since Sept. 18, 2023, I have been with the School of Engineering at the University of Guelph as a Postdoctoral Scholar. I am currently doing independent research with Dr. Sheng Yang in the Design Innovation and Intelligent Manufacturing (DIIM) Laboratory.
