岂能尽如人意,但求无愧我心。

Life won’t always meet your expectation, but strive to live without hesitation.

Short Bio

Hi! I am an Assistant Professor at the School of Artificial Intelligence, Shandong University. I received my Ph.D. from the Institute of Information Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences, where I was co-advised by Prof. Rui Hou and Prof. Mingzhe Zhang.

My research interests broadly lie in computer architecture and systems, with a focus on designing efficient and secure computing systems for privacy-preserving computation and artificial intelligence. My recent work spans hardware acceleration for Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), secure machine learning systems, and accelerator/system design for Large Language Models (LLMs).

Openings

Prospective Students: I am always looking for self-motivated Ph.D., master’s, and undergraduate students interested in computer architecture, secure and privacy-preserving computation, efficient AI systems, and hardware/software co-design. Feel free to contact me at damionfan@163.com with a brief introduction, research interests, CV, and transcript.
