Portrait of Chenhui Zuo

Chenhui Zuo

PhD Candidate, Tsinghua University

I am a PhD candidate at the School of Aerospace Engineering, Tsinghua University, advised by Prof. Yanan Sui. I develop human musculoskeletal models in physical simulation, alongside advanced learning frameworks for the motion control of high-dimensional embodied systems. Operating at the intersection of musculoskeletal simulation, reinforcement learning, and human-centered robotics, my work aims to advance the understanding of human movement and embodied intelligence.
