Yuling Sun

Visiting Professor

University of Michigan

Hello/你好呀! This is Yuling, an incoming research professor at Fudan University. Currently, I am a visiting professor at University of Michigan. Before that, I was an associate professor at East China Normal University. I received my Ph.D. under the supervision of Prof. Ning Gu from CISL Lab at Fudan University.


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 aging, healthcare, education, city governance, and rural revitalization. I adopt socio-technical approaches to understand and design human-centered tools, technologies, and systems to promote individual and social health and 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.



I am looking for talented and highly motivated Master/PhD students, as well as undergraduates and visiting interns/scholars, who are interested in various research projects on social computing, computer supported collaborative work, human-computer interaction for aging, healthcare, education, rural, and governance to join my research group at Fudan University, starting in Fall 2025. Please send me your CV if you are interested or have any questions.
