Fukang Liu

I am a PhD student in Robotics at Georgia Institute of Technology where I'm fortunate to be advised by Ye Zhao, Yue Chen and Danfei Xu. I am honored to be supported by the IRIM PhD Fellowship. My research focuses on multi-arm cooperative manipulation in humanoid robots.

Previously, I was fortunate to work with Zackory Erickson and Zeynep Temel at Robotics Institute, Carnegie Mellon University. I also spent great time at Department of Computer Science and Technology, Tsinghua University, worked with Bin Fang, Xiang Li, and Fuchun Sun, and began my journey in robotics. I hold a Master's degree from Carnegie Mellon University and Tsinghua University. I obtained my Bachelor's degree (with Honors) in Mechanics from Tongji University.
