 Example:

 I received my B.S. degree in Computer Science at Nanjing University in 1999, and my PhD in Computer Science at Nanjing University in 2005. I joined the Nanjing University as an assistant professor in 2005 , worked as an associate professor from 2008, and obtained professor in 2017. I have been on leave from Nanjing University from August 2010 to September 2011 to visit EECS Department and Statistics Department at UC Berkeley.


My research focuses on image/video processing, deep learning, and Artificial Intelligence security. I have served as Principal Investigator for one NSFC Young Scientists Fund, one sub-project of the NSFC–Guangdong Joint Fund, seven provincial/ministerial-level projects, and two department-level projects. As a core member, I have contributed to four NSFC General Programs, one National Key Technology Support Program, and more than ten provincial/ministerial R&D or key-special projects. To date, I have published over 80 peer-reviewed papers in journals such as IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and Security, Knowledge-Based Systems, Chinese Journal of Computers, and Journal on Communications, and I hold nearly 20 granted invention patents. I received the Second Prize of the Guangdong Provincial Natural Science Award.
