About

Hi! My name is Jin Wang. I am a third-year Ph. D. student in Bioengineering and Robotics at Italian Institute of Technology (IIT), advised by Nikos Tsagarakis as part of the Humanoids and Human Centered Mechatronics (HHCM) lab. My research interests lie in robot learning, humanoids and embodied AI. More specifically, I’m focusing on autonomous robotic loco-manipulation, integrating foundation models into robot tasks and improving autonomy through learning.

I am deeply committed to cross-disciplinary teamwork, leveraging engineering mindsets to address real-world challenges. And I’m passionate about novel robotic design and exploring the intelligence and potential value of robots.

Previously, I was a Master student in Robotics at LIRMM CNRS, France. I received my B.A. in Robotics Union Academy Guangdong-HongKong at GDUT.
