Yuling Sun

Associate Professor

East China Normal University

I am an Associate Professor in the School of Computer Science and Technology at East China Normal University , and before that a post-doctoral researcher at Institute of Computer Applications of East China Normal University. I received my Ph.D. under the supervision of Prof. Ning Gu from CISL Lab at Fudan University in 2016. I was just awarded the Hughes Fellowship of University of Michigan, and will be a visiting scholar at UMich, Ann Arbor, in 2024-2025.


My research lies at the interaction of Human-computer Interaction (HCI), Computer Supported Collaborative Work(CSCW), and Social Computing. My current work primarily focuses on issues of technology(AI)-mediated elderly care, education, urban management and rural revitalization. I adopt socio-technical approaches to understand and design human-centered AI (HCAI) systems to promote individual and social well-being. My overarching goal is computing technologies can be better designed to unlock the potential of individuals, support collaborations, promote individual and social well-being, and create a positive societal impact.
